It was the "golden age" for jazz music. Jazz music was directed toward a younger crowd and typically improvised.
"Listening to music can create peak emotions, which increase the amount of dopamine, a specific neurotransmitter that is produced in the brain and helps control the brains reward and pleasure centers." Music can affect our emotions and mental health. Music can also be a form of communication.
Music is significant in The Great Gatsby because certain songs throughout the novel represent the main characters emotions and moods.
F. Scott Fitzgerald does mention in another work of his that, "It was an age of miracles, it was an age of art, it was an age of excess, and it was an age of satire."
