The History Of Jazz
By
Jakob Culver
American classical music, also known as jazz is a diverse genre of
music that stems from native American and African music. Most jazz
is inspired by blues music. Jazz first became popular in the early
1920’s in clubs in cities like New Orleans and Chicago. In the
1930’s Jazz was so popular that there were even white jazz singers.
Big bands came into play such as Ben Goodman and Glen Miller,
although some viewed them as swing more than jazz.
Jazz led into more conventional methods that made it like today’s
pop groups. Only then it was called Be Bop. The jazz music was
becoming more loose and more harmonized.
Be bop was not what you would call dancing music, but it was more
to actually see the performers. This made each performer strive a
little harder to be the best, because without the dancing it really
was about the talent.
Of course jazz music was often sad and was about heartache and
troubles of life. Most of the music was based off of the performers
lives. A lot of performer’s died from drug and alcohol abuse.
Jazz is based off of a classical background and to play it well
you have to learn the chords and scales of the songs. It also takes
improvisation and an imagination. It can be quite difficult, but for
some jazz is just in the blood.
The Development of Jazz in New Orleans
By
Carolyn Polinsky
Jazz is known as being one of the only styles of music created in
America, though it is a mixture West African and Western music
traditions. Jazz's began in New Orleans, around the 1900’s, but its
roots can be traced back hundreds of years earlier when slaves who
were brought to America developed spirituals and blues in order to
communicate with one another and express sadness, desires and
religious beliefs. The music was passed along orally with each new
generation making their own unique changes to the songs, which were
often of a call and response form and unaccompanied by musical
instruments. Rhythms and melodies from the black community were
combined with European compositions leading to the development of
Ragtime music around 1895. “Ragging” a song meant dragging out
certain notes and livening up music by rearranging notes. Ragtime
and Jazz are similar but Ragtime music is predominantly sole piano
music while Jazz music is played in ensembles.
Though jazz is closely associated with blues and ragtime, one of
the most important elements of jazz music is that it is
improvisational music—well-known notes and lines are a starting
point for musicians to develop unique songs around. Early jazz
musicians often could not read music but they thrilled audiences by
bringing emotion, excitement and the unexpected to their pieces.
While ragtime music was popular in restaurants, clubs or hotels,
Jazz was mobile, versatile music played at funerals, parades,
weddings, and at festivals.
The 1920’s were known as the Jazz Age as New Orleans jazz was
brought to nightclubs in Northern cities such as Chicago and New
York. It was more upscale than the music of New Orleans, and New
Orleans Jazz distinguished itself as being a more folksy and
spontaneous form of Jazz. Throughout the 20th century, many
variations of Jazz music were popular including Dixieland, bebop,
Big Band, swing, cool jazz, soul jazz and Latin jazz.
All forms of jazz music and the types of music that inspired it
or have preceded it are celebrated during the New Orleans Jazz and
Heritage Festival. The event began in 1970 as means of showcasing
the musical heritage, arts, crafts and cuisine unique of New
Orleans. The first Jazz Festival had a lineup that included Duke
Ellington and Fats Domino and only about 350 attendees.
Quickly the Festival’s popularity grew and it now draws hundreds
of thousands of visitors, world-renowned singers and the top talent
of New Orleans and Louisiana. This year, artists including Rod
Stewart, Jon Mayer, Harry Connick Jr. and ZZ Top are set to play in
the event which will take place during the weekends of April 27-29
and May 4-6.
2007 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival attendees are invited
to stay at the Hotel Maison de Ville in the French Quarter so that
in addition to seeing the festival performances, they’ll be right by
jazz clubs and bars where they can hear intimate performances by
traditional and contemporary jazz artists who have been inspired by
the earliest performers.
Hotel Maison de Ville is located in the heart of New
Orleans' French Quarter. The main building located at
727 Rue Toulouse, the reception room, parlor, concierge,
and nine guest quarters. Additional luxury
accommodations are offered in other historic buildings,
including the Audubon Cottages. The Maison de Ville also
is home to one of the finest restaurants in New Orleans,
The Bistro, which features Nouvelle Creole Cuisine.
