**__I__****__nformation on Album:__**
Maiko:"when my audience is listening to my song "Trust", people get the feeling where they want to here a live performance of it. The song "Trust" isn't a song where you can just listen to on tape, this song has to be listened to live to experience the unique mood jazz gives you. "Trust" is a song that brings out beautiful and melodic sound to the sound. When listening to "Trust" i promise the audience that they will feel no discomfort.

**__Analysis of the piece:__**
This piece was chosen for this assignment because the musical feeling of jazz is amusing to me, and also it sounds outstanding live.The song " Trust" has an outstanding melody that the audience can experience, it brings out the unique motion of jazz. The rhythm "Trust" carries out is very deep and emotional when it is understood by the audience. The harmony of this song "Trust" contains the violin, base,drumset, and piano. This song starts out with the piano playing very fragile, the violin than joins in forming a beatiful resonating melody. Maiko fullfils this song with a beatiful resonating melody that is beatifully sustained troughout the song. Maiko's bowing was sustained troughout the piece. maiko's performance technique was outstanding especially when she was moving with the piece.One of the key reasons why this piece was performed so succesfully was becuase the other members of the group did there best to support maiko's melody without overpowering her.
