All That Jazz

[Cajuntraveler]

After 10 cruises on HAL, DH and I did a 7 day cruise on Celebrity Equinox last month.  We found many things that we preferred on X over HAL, but we were somewhat disappointed that almost all the live music was jazz. Only one group played anything other than jazz.  We enjoy listening to live music in the evenings, but we do not care for jazz.  We really enjoy HAL's music walk with a variety of music from classical, billboard on board , blues and rock.

 

Is jazz the dominate music on all Celebrity cruises? We have booked another cruise on X for early 2023 and are considering switching our loyalty from HAL to X, but  wondering how much we will miss HAL's music variety.

Not in my experience. There has always been a good mix of different music styles in the various venues around the ships. Usually there will be a classic duo, a solo guitarist, a dance banc, etc.

The majority of our cruises on X didn’t have that much jazz.   Lot of solo folk singers, cover bands  doing rock and  DJs banging on the electric drums.  
 

The only Jazz was when the ships orchestra  would play when not in the theater.  
 

Happy cruising. 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

I agree that there's not much in the way of jazz. I've seen some (that was very good, actually), but jazz does not dominate in any way.

We too have not encountered much jazz on Celebrity.

Not in my experience at all. In fact I’ve seen people here complain (shocking…I know) that over the course of an evening in the same venue, the type of music changes too frequently.

Our last cruises had string duet. Love them.
