the generate of jazz
The jazziest American contribution to the vocabulary of English is jazz itself.From obscure origins among African Americans in New Orleans a century ago,the music and the word we use for it have become familiar the world over.Jazz has been called "the most significant form of musical expression of American black culture and America's outstanding contribution to the art of music," blending elements of African music,work songs,hymns,dances,marches,and Creole music,and developing through the blues and ragtime into a new syncopated improvisational style.Jazz flourished in New Orleans before World War I,in Chicago in the 1920s,and in New York and throughout the country after that.White performers learned it from African Americans and added to the variety of jazz styles.
