Identifying the Musical Genre

a few quotes from people which explain why jazz is still important to music today -

"Jazz is the key foundation stone from which has derived most pop music of the modern day. Without it, God only knows where we'd be"


"No other genre of music brings that special atmosphere when you listen to it. Good jazz is jazz which moves us physically and mentally. Good jazz comes from jazz players who play well and who feel the music purely from their heart. Most modern pop music is manufactured in a studio by people with no skill or ability. You can always guarantee that good sounding jazz has come from someone with real passion and skill and NOT been manufactured out of a studio."

"most modern music artists now only care about imagetheir e; not the music. With jazz, the music always always always comes first"

What My Magazine Must Include

Language - a catchy masthead name for the magazine which is to take up the largest space so that it is noticed before anything else. The main image is someone in medium close up. they are to be seen clearlly making eye contact wiht the audience.
A bright colour scheme as opposed to a dark one as it would not attract the audieces attention as much. Using 2 or 3 differnt colours.
Small images to illustrate othr stories within (thumbnails)
An anchorage to the main image
Price
barcode
competitions in a skyline
main article of the magazine (which relates to main front page image)

Institute - the magazine wil be produced by a company who would have much experience in the production of music magazines.

Ideology - the idea I want to convey is that jazz music is still as modern and accepted and appreciated by the younger generation as it always has been. It is the foundation from which pop/rock music has arisen from the last 30 years. Since then even more genres of music have arisen from rock and pop.

Audience - students studying music, or a wide variety of music genres as part of a course. fans of jazz music. producers, musicians.

Representation - the target audience will be represented positively by the the material of the articles inside discussing positive aspects of music. Specifically jazz.
