By presenting the audience with a familiar formal structure Berg is then free to more openly manipulate and change other variables such as using non-functional harmonies and unresolved melodic passages.

The performance was a shining example of American creativity, with over a dozen historical masterpieces of Jazz on display. This paper will analyze every song played in Singers Unlimited, and discuss the musical factors which truly made them the gems of history.

“I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music” (Billy Joel).
