Jazz music combines African-American music with European music. Jazz was very popular in the 1920s.

Some common jazz instruments include the saxophone, trumpet, piano, double bass, and drums.]]> 2018-10-18 19:34:06 UTC https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294585670 uceyyubb https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294594887 It is difficult to give an exact definition for "jazz".One important part of jazz is improvisation (improv), which means the person playing is making music up as they go along. If a jazz band is playing a song, the song may have several solos where one player will improvise while the rest of the band, except for the rhythm section (such as the piano, bass, or drums), does not play.]]> 2018-10-18 19:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294594887 uceyyubb https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294595543 There have been different types of jazz through time. In the 1920s, there was New Orleans-style jazz. Dixieland jazz was also popular. In the 1930s, there was swing jazz, which was also called big band jazz. In the 1940s, bebop became a major type of jazz, with fast songs and complex harmony.]]> 2018-10-18 20:00:10 UTC https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294595543 uceyyubb https://padlet.com/uceyyubb/el8q6msbu546/wish/294595873 In the 1960s, there was modern jazzand free jazz.
