 Great OP! I could probably suggest song additions to each of your headings, but there is more than enough already. I am a saxophonist of thirteen years - primarily alto and tenor, and a little soprano on the side. I have studied jazz for about eight years, and though I am not an amazing improviser, I can hold my own. It is still a lot of fun!

So, Azure, which is your favorite type of jazz?

I prefer modern pop jazz, acid jazz, jazz hop, and modal jazz (and on occasion big band jazz). Bebop always has a special place in my heart, though. Could never really get into the others.

I was named after Miles Davis (first name Miles) and my parents made sure I grew up listening to both jazz and classic rock. That definitely influenced my musical tastes 22 years later.

Really? That's awesome! I love bebop too, though I struggle to play it well. I share the last name of a certain alto player with Bird-like tendencies too...
