“As Time Goes By” and “Everyday I Have the Blues” had a vocalist named Alex Aguirre. Aguirre did such an amazing job in hitting some very low notes. He truly did sound like a jazz male vocalist by hitting some very low notes, he was also able to create a raspy voice while still sounding amazing. Additional point on diversity was most definably on the song “4a.m.” by Jamail Chachere- Stuart, as Dr. Ruiz referred to it as the “world premier” of this new song. I was really impressed by the fact that Stuart it still a student here at UTSA. At the beginning on the song, Stuart starts out by playing the keyboard. This really caught my attention, as mentioned before I am new to jazz, I didn’t know that an electric keyboard could be part of a jazz ensemble. It created a very fresh and live beat to the song. In the music of today most of the sounds don’t really come from instruments anymore, more like computers. I was really able to connect with the song because not only was it a bit digitalized, it related into the type of music I listen to
