Billie Holiday & Louis Armstrong The Blues Are Brewin موسيقى الجاز الأمريكي

Jazz is a primarily American musical art form which originated at the beginning of the 20th century in African American communities in the Southern United States from a confluence of African and European music traditions. The style's West African pedigree is evident in its use of blue notes, improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation, and the swung note.

From its early development until the present, jazz has also incorporated music from 19th and 20th century American popular music.[2] The word jazz began as a West Coast slang term of uncertain derivation and was first used to refer to music in Chicago in about 1915; for the origin and history, see Jazz (word).

Jazz has, from its early 20th century inception, spawned a variety of subgenres, from New Orleans Dixieland dating from the early 1910s, big band-style swing from the 1930s and 1940s, bebop from the mid-1940s, a variety of Latin jazz fusions such as Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz from the 1950s and 1960s, jazz-rock fusion from the 1970s and late 1980s developments such as acid jazz, which blended jazz influences into funk and hip-hop. As the music has spread around the world it has drawn on local national and regional musical cultures, its aesthetics being adapted to its varied environments and giving rise to many distinctive styles.

What does Kaknelson mean when (s)he says, "this Haitian sis"? Wasn't Billie born in Baltimore?

God knows, this is magical. Just looking at Louis Armstrong. His smile is a thing of pure magic. I love seeing how they are really enjoying themselves on stage and the absolute professionalism on display. Hard to imagine that this level of quality was the norm. The most amazing singers and musicians ever and people appreciated it. Those days are gone.
