After reviewing each video, I personally think I would be most comfortable as an audience member at a Jazz performance. The reason being is Jazz music gives me positive vibes. I feel like Jazz brings people from everywhere together. As I was growing up, my father loved playing a lot of Duke Ellington’s music in the car rides, Duke’s music makes me feel at peace whenever I get too worked up. Personally, I would like to see the performers have fun and enjoy their music as much as the audience does. I would be expected to act appropriately. Such as, talking at a low level, applauding when necessary, treating the people around you with respect, and most importantly having a fun time.

I think the least comfortable performance for me is at a chamber music recital. One reason is the distance between the audience and the performer is very important to hearing the music being played. As a performer you want to ensure that your audience can clearly hear the music, if you sit at the front of the stage you may not be able to hear all the sounds at the same time.
