Jazz Music is the fusion of blues, rock and roll, ska, reggae, rhythm and blues, drum and bass and Latin. It originated in the 1920's in the African American communities in the United States' Southern areas. At the start of the 1920's, the influence of African and European music and culture helped in the development of Jazz. The beat consists of blues notes, polyrhythms, swing beats and improvisation. A typical jazz set up includes a big-band style of music with a little mix of everything. The sound of jazz cannot be described, as you need to listen to it for it to be appreciated.
As the years went by, Jazz has collaborated with many genres and has earned a massive following that has also contributed to the progress of the lifestyle that it brings about. Jazz musicians are found all over the world, and because of their influence, the younger generation has also learned to appreciate a century old music style.
