Or maybe, I don't like jazz at all and don't listen to or follow its artists.
If you don't think that Wynton Marsalis and jazz count as "culture," then I don't know what you mean by that word. Marsalis is a virtuoso classical artist, as well, BTW. You might want to browse Amazon music and check out his repertoire. I don't enjoy cool jazz at all, but I very much enjoy Dixieland, a unique musical genre, and ragtime. You might want to give them a listen, just for the exposure. There's another genre unique to the French-Canadians who settled near New Orleans called Zydeco, which is also interesting.
Among my favorite music genres is Andean folk music, a part of the "culture" of Peru, Bolivia, etc. If you've never been exposed to it, you might want to give it a listen, too. |
