American Jazz

Art Forms: Music

My earliest memory of music awareness came from an incident I remember when I was 4 years old. I was in a car with my mother, and the radio was playing. I remember listening to the music and realizing that I could hear a pattern of something changing in the music and could predict when these events were about to occur. All these years later, I realize that I was hearing the chord changes and anticipating the meter of the changes. This is a vivid memory for me, which is surprising considering I was just 4.
