Jazz music was created in the 19th century, at the time where people fell in love with music. Jazz music is a reggae type of soulful music that was composed mainly by African Americans. Jazz music is also very calming music that can also be very powerful. The popularity of jazz music majorly increased after the invention of the radio because people could tune in to the new era of music. This type of music was a combination of secular music and religious music. Although, there is a large contrast it is what they did. The secular music was from a lot of the slave history that they have experienced. The more religious music was what the African Americans had learned in church. Jazz music majorly originated in the city of New Orleans, Louisiana.  It was in this particular city because this was a major port city where many people of different ethnicities would meet. Here, jazz musicians would share their talent of either singing or sometimes just playing an instrument. Many legendary musicians were formed as a result of this era such as, Louis Armstrong and Billie Holiday.

Present day music has definitely been influenced by jazz music. Different musicians have used different techniques to portray this genre of music. For a while until later in the 19th century, jazz was the biggest type of music. If a present day listener listens to the radio they are still able to hear hints of jazz. For example, R&B music has the most jazz influences with it. Overall the influences of jazz music has had a spiritual impact for new singers and continues to leave an impact and it won’t stop because this music was such a turning point for style of music.

This primary source describes how the famous Jazz singer Billie Holiday passed away and explained some of the influence she left on Jazz music. It is sad because it explains how Holiday died at the age of 44, which is really young. Her death was caysed by addiction which Im assuming was to drugs or alcohol. It is sad when famous people begin to realize their wealth and waste on things like that. It is especially sad when legends like her throw their life away with it.

The Jazz Age of the Roaring Twenties put the spotlight on a new sound standing firmly on center-stage.

With the rise of this new musical form came a common thread that runs throughout the 1920s: innovation and energy.

The Role of Jazz In 1920s Culture

As with fashion and the characters of the 1920s, the music has often been romanticized and mythologized. It's hard to tell fact from fiction.

The fact is the jazz lifestyle was appealing to many. Aloof, hard-edged, passionate and distinctly urban, the jazz musician character appealed to many young white girls and boys hoping to escape the drudgery of rural America.

Chicago and New York became the hotbeds of this new music. Jazz quartets were forming all over the country as young boys gathered to listen to new records on windup Victrolas.

It was written that everything "in fashion would, sooner or later, be defined as jazz." Jazz was more than a musical style, it was style.

The Age of Jazz didn't only occur in the cities. It was as much or more a phenomenon in the small towns where girls and boys smoke, drank, drove fast, and "petted" in the back seats of motorcars.

The early 1920s were prime years of flappers; despised by "proper" Middle America, but adored by the major newspapers and magazines of the day.

Taking the music out of the equation, you can make a good argument "The Jazz Age" was as much a slick marketing campaign as it was a social revolution.

Girls were spending hundreds of dollars the get the right "flapper" look (in the 1920s this was worth upwards of $1000).

Make no mistake, there was a revolution happening, both in the music world and with the "New Woman" of The Jazz Age.

You just had to look in the right places.

The Mould of "The New Woman"

Thanks in large part to young woman like Zelda Sayre (F. Scott Fitzgerald's young bride), Louise Brooks and Lois Long, women were becoming a major force to be reckoned with in popular culture of the 1920s.

Smart, witty, brash, and eloquent, these women not only drank and partied just as hard as the men, they also chronicled their experiences as flappers during the Roaring Twenties..

Long was a major reporter for New York's newest magazine, "The New Yorker". She journaled here exploits and adventures as Manhattan's most popular socialite. She was the Carrie Bradshaw of the 1920s, and fleshed out what it meant to experience The Jazz Age.

Joshua Zietz writes, "Flapperdom was every bit as much an expression of class aspirations as it was a statement of personal freedom."

In this photograph it seems that people are enjoying their time listening to music. There are ladies dressed as they are flappers girls dancing to jazz. My thoughts about this picture is that their are never women playing an instrument. Women seemed to be a little background to get people more into the music.
