The legend of jazz was created in New Orleans then move toward the river named Mississippi River and on to Memphis, St. Louis and finally Chicago. Jazz helps to calm the soul from a hard day of any kind.
Jazz was based on African-American life-styles. Jazz travels back to the African tribal drum beats and European music structures. A quote was made by Robert Goffin in 1934 that "Jazz, like any artistic phenomenon, represents the sum of an addition. The factors of this addition are, to my mind, African music, French and American music and folklore."
Around the year of 1891 a barber in New Orleans started to play his cornet and began to blow the first notes of jazz. He didn't know he had began the history of Jazz. The 'jazz age' of the 1920's into 1930's then the modern jazz began in the 1950's.
Early jazz performers used blues to help emotions. Musicians artists to name a few- Don Redman, Ma Rainey and early works of Louis Armstrong.
Early jazz went from modern, to hot jazz it got so good it went from hot jazz to bebop in 1940 then 1960 free Jazz to soul jazz and 1990 jazz became smooth jazz.
Jazz became popular around the world. All types of Jazz has played in clubs but the most popular is smooth jazz. Free and Soul jazz help with poetry or expressing deep feelings from the heart.
Jazz has made a huge en-pact on communities. From newbies to oldies. Hate to say it but the new generation had taking over. And jazz will never die.
