Jazz,
what does that word evoke in your mind?
Nothing. It evokes something in
your soul. It’s wild, jubilant
music. It made people feel free when it
emerged from the barrooms of New Orleans. It made people feel alive and it got people
up and dancing. And nobody played it
like they played it in New Orleans, a city already used to feeling jubilant,
and expressing its jubilation. A city where you could dance down the middle of
the street, in the middle of the daytime, in the middle of the week, and
instead of people wondering why you weren't at work, they'd be wondering how
they could join you. The glory of New Orleans is that it's still that way
today. Everyone loves a parade. Everything is touched by the joyous anarchy
called New Orleans Jazz.
Jazzis a music genre that
originated amongst African Americans
in New Orleans, United States
in the late 19th and early 20th
centuries, and developed from roots in
Blues and Ragtime. Since the 1920s jazz age, jazz has become
recognized as a major form of musical expression. It then emerged in the form
of independent traditional and popular musical styles, all linked by the common
bonds of African American and European American musical parentage with a
performance orientation. Jazz is characterized by swing and blue notes,
call and response vocals, polyruthms and most of all improvisation. Jazz has
roots in West African cultural amd musical expression, and in African American
music traditions including blues and ragtime, as well as European military band
music. Although the
foundation of jazz is deeply rooted within the Black experience of the United
States, different cultures have contributed their own experience and styles to
the art form as well. Intellectuals around the world have hailed jazz as
"one of America's original art forms".
Jazz has undergone a multitude of transformations throughout the 20th
century. There is currently room for several Jazz genres. These aspects range
from Dixieland to the experimentalism of Freejazz, through standards and more
ambitious compositions.
