Classical music generally follows a set of rules and parameters, but on the other hand, jazz is about improvisation.

Jazz musicians often use chord progressions and melodies borrowed from classical music, but they add their unique flair.

The differences between Jazz and Classical are numerous and cannot be fully covered in a few sentences. Therefore, I will cover only one point of difference, which is significant to me: the time frame within which each discipline has evolved.

if you were asked to list who do you personally consider to be the greatest all gender crooners of all time what would you say?

Crooner is a term used to describe singers who established a name and their fortunes performing a smooth style made possible by better microphones which picked up quieter sounds and a wider range of frequencies, allowing the vocalist to access a more dynamic range and deliver it in a more intimate manner.

We’ll give you two hints… Rosalía is last and…Martha Reeves is 151 So who’s got the number one spot?
