Heard it on the radio, loved it from then on. That was when I was about five. But I've only really started to take an interest in it for about a year or so.

Mine was a very strange way to be introduced to it I think. I watched the episode of The Muppet Show where Dizzy Gillespie was the guest star. I was hooked after that.

There have been quite a few jazz artists on the muppet show or was it Sesame Street?

I got to jazz through drums. The more I looked for professional drummers the more I realized that the jazz drummers were all the best along with many other instruments. Buddy Rich is the champion.

when you're a sax player, it's a seemingly natural direction to go : )

i guess that i really got interested in jazz when i was in 4th grade i think, my oldest brother had a glen miller cd and when i heard it i was like "oo this is really good. what is it?"

and my bro said "its called jazz"
so i guess thats how i got hooked on jazz. in 7th grade i started to actually play jazz and thats when i fell in love with the tenor sax. and ive been playing and listening to jazz ever since. ^_^

I was fascinated by lower sounds.
