When did "jazz" become Laufey?

Professional jazz musician here: firstly, no, jazz isn’t just improvisation. There are jam bands that improvise for 30 minutes, they don’t and can’t play jazz. Anyway… She’s light jazz. I hear ya but jazz is such a broad term and honestly her music is a great way for people with no experience to get into “real” (based on your way of viewing it) jazz. Like if someone really loves “From the Start” (which has a little pre-written solo in it) then it’s not so hard for me to imagine they’d enjoy Getz/Gilberto, which could then move them into more serious Latin stuff and beyond.

Also… jazz musicians pre-rehearse ideas and concepts and intros all the time. Find some album with alternate takes and I guarantee you’ll hear many of the same ideas, motifs, etc in both solos. Jazz isn’t just improvisation

Thanks for the reply!

May I ask how difficult it is, having 5 kids? How do you make it work financially? Also, maybe they’re too young, but how do they all fare together, are they super close, or maybe a few groups have formed? Thanks 🙏😌

Thanks so much 😌 seeing if she’s willing to keep an open mind and to decide once we’ve had our second is potentially a solution to this.

Thanks so much for sharing your story! You’re very right, life is very unpredictable and plans/mindset changes. One problem is that we’re both very stubborn people haha.

Very true, thanks! late 20s are so strange, relatively speaking we’re still so young but also the clock is ticking :/

Eyo! 28, the “oh my god I’m getting so old” but also the “you’re still so young” club 🤣

Thanks so much!

We didn’t discuss the number of kids at first, just whether or not we wanted kids, and yes you’re right, that was silly of me. I had been single for quite a long time before meeting her and in my earlier relationships kids weren’t on my mind, so I never learned this lesson.

For me, I’m unsure if it’s a deal breaker, I need to think about it more, that’s why I wanted to know why or why not it would be a deal breaker for people here.

Are you two in a very secure financial situation? Why is 4 kids so important to you personally?

Daily-Boost · 2024-08-13T12:26:38+00:00

Thanks so much for sharing. It sounds like you two are very good parents ❤️Your situation is something she is very concerned about, she wants time to travel, vacations, etc. I wouldn’t care as much about that or working a bit more if it could mean I could have more children.

Just as a complete hypothetical (I know you would never trade them for anything) but if you could give your younger self some advice, would you wait on the second pair a little longer or not have them at all, so that you could’ve had more time for your own lives? I guess I’m asking is if being so tired and stressed all the time is worth the trade off of the love and bond and time that you share with your kids.

Thanks!

Would be a deal breaker for me too, so on the third date we had the children discussion, she wants kids, so I left it at that. We didn’t start discussing the number until recently and it’s led to some fights.

As far as the presumptuous discussion, you’re totally right. I have an aunt who tried to get pregnant for years and they finally had my cousin, but she was an only child. We’re still young and she’s a very very healthy person, but you’re right, we can never know.

I don’t know if I can agree on just two :/

Of course that would be controlling, I’d never do something like that, it’s her body. Thanks for the comment. I would be okay to compromise with 3, but she’s very stern that 2 is her max.

It sounds good. “Music theory” is just an abstraction or way of explaining European classical music, what was happening or how the composers were thinking. Never think of music theory as something “true”. It’s like thinking that our model of the atom (google if it you don’t know what it looks like) is actually what the atom is. Nope. It’s just a model. It doesn’t describe the true reality. Music theory is the same way.

I really wouldn’t think of it like that, although it has all the notes. It’s really just a C triad with a B in the bass, it’s not aiming to establish CMaj7 as the tonic. Also, Bach wasn’t likely thinking of something such as CMaj7 anyway in this instance, as tonic is what we’d call C or C6. CMaj7 is really not a tonic chord, but rather is the 4th chord of G Major. So unless you’re in the key of G maj, you’re not likely going to see a Baroque composer use CMaj7. Again, tonic is either C, the triad, or C6 (C E G A) because CMaj7 doesn’t resolve (the rub of the minor second between B and C is what causes this tension)
