ABOUT JAZZ MUSIC.
Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with its roots in blues, ragtime, European harmony and African rhythmic rituals.

As jazz spread around the world, it drew on national, regional, and local musical cultures, which gave rise to different styles. New Orleans jazz began in the early 1910s, combining earlier brass band marches, French quadrilles, biguine, ragtime and blues with collective polyphonic improvisation.

However, jazz did not begin as a single musical tradition in New Orleans or elsewhere.
In the 1930s, arranged dance-oriented swing big bands, Kansas City jazz a hard-swinging, bluesy, improvisational style), and gypsy jazz (a style that emphasized musette waltzes were the prominent styles.

Bebop emerged in the 1940s, shifting jazz from danceable popular music toward a more challenging "musician's music" which was played at faster tempos and used more chord-based improvisation. Cool jazz developed near the end of the 1940s, introducing calmer, smoother sounds and long, linear melodic lines.
