Jazz great Charlie Parker once said, "If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn." What do you think he meant by this? Do you agree or disagree with this statement and why? Be sure to support your statements.

I believe it means that if you haven't truly experienced the message you are trying to play, it won't come out authentic or it won't come out at all. I completely agree with this statement. We can see many examples in our society where we should educate ourselves on a subject before we try to preach it. Imagine this: If you were trying to write a novel about George Washington but knew nothing about him or his life, what kind of book would that be? A pretty bad one, if you ask me. Also, if you're not passionate about him and his work, either in a positive or negative light, your overall work won't be very enthusiastic and will probably be boring to read. In artistry, you need to express yourself and your opinions loud and proud. The best pieces of works are the ones you pour your heart and soul into. An art piece that isn't a piece of you is not a good piece.

(I didn't know how long you needed this to be so I just wrote a short little thing. Feel free to use this as a base to make something longer as you need it!)

I agree with the statement that "If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn." Jazz is special among all music genres that one's own experiences, ideas, and heart shows through in how it is played. Quite often with the same piece of music, two people will play it very differently. You get to understand a jazz musician and he or she lives life from listening to the music. It is also the difference between someone who plays music and a true musician.
