About Jazz
- Jazz music, typically considered one of the main genres of so-called rhythmic music, is generally thought to date back to late nineteenth century America although it is possible to trace earlier versions as well.
- Originally jazz music was very closely linked to the African-American population in the US, related to African music, blues and gospel. Later also classical music, rock, pop and electronic music has influenced the development of jazz.
- The history of jazz music is typically divided into specific periods and genres, from New Orleans and swing through jungle and bebop to cool and free jazz.
- Keynote speakers on jazz might delve into the history of jazz music, relating to general history, to politics, to changes in society, or maybe they take a closer look at specific genres, artists, etc.
