jazz music

Shortly after the turn of the 20th century, the earliest

documented jazz music style emerged in New Orleans. Jazz

began with a basic trio of musicians: a cornet, trumpet, or violin

to carry the melody while a clarinet played ornate

countermelodies, and the trombone provided rhythmic slides

and the root notes of chords or simple harmonies.

Jazz was first

played at the

started of the 20th

century by black

musicians in New

Orleans, Louisiana.

The first musical groups that touched musical jazz were

characterized for possessing a rhythmic section which

function wasn’t melodic and would evolve up to consisting

of piano, double-bass and drum set. The jazz’s pioneers

were King Oliver, Freddie Keppard, Louis Armstrong, Jelly

Roll Morton, Sidney Bechet y Buddy Bolden.
