Jazz Musician, Classical Musician, What`s the Difference?
Classical and jazz musicians are both on average highly skilled instrumentalist. However, jazz musicians are more sensitive to experimentation and unexpected shifts in music. In general, a jazz musician is better able to react and respond to changes in music, where as a classical musician may have a technique awareness due to years of technical study. Classical musicians focus on technique and personal expression they add to music. Jazz musicians focus on being prepared to improvise and adapt notes they`re playing.
In a study of 30 musicians, all pianist; 15 jazz pianist, and 15 classical pianist found differences in the way these pianist process performing the same piece of music. Jazz pianist re-planned sooner than classical pianist on a study of playing a sequence of chords on a screen. This study was conducted by the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, in Leipzig, Germany. They found "the brain creates pathways over time in response to different musical activities". Neuroscientist speculate different procedures established in their brains while performing make it difficult to switch between styles. Repeated actions influence and change how musicians think. Musicians practice on areas of music that meet the demand posed by their chosen art. "Repeated actions change the structure of the brain".
In conclusion, there is a difference in how jazz and classical musicians process performing music. The brain creates pathways to musical activities that differ from jazz and classical musicians. Repeated actions influence musicians thinking, and musicians practice to meet the demand of their art. So what`s the difference, it depends on the musical genre you have chosen.
