Here’s what to play instead, slow songs included.
For classically trained musicians in the Baylor Jazz String Quartet, “embracing the weird” has become second nature. Although the four members grew up learning to perfect their craft, jazz has become for them what rock ‘n’ roll was for Elton John during his youth.
