Extended data:

Jazz originated in the United States at the end of 19 and the beginning of the 20th century, and was born in the southern port city of New Orleans. Its music comes from blues and ragtime music. Jazz pays attention to improvisation, based on the swaying rhythm of shuffling, and is a combination of African black culture and European white culture.

In jazz tunes, apart from the elements absorbed from European traditional music, white folk songs and pop songs, the most distinctive one is the "blues scale" (we will introduce the structure of this scale in the part about blues).

Jazz harmony can be said to be completely based on traditional harmony, but it is more free in the use of varied chords, and the main difference is also brought by blues chords.

Jazz is very distinctive in musical instruments and playing methods, which is completely different from traditional bands. Since the Jazz Age, saxophone has become one of the best-selling musical instruments. Trombones can play funny or grotesque sliding sounds that other brass instruments can't play, so they cause a sensation in jazz bands.

Trumpet is also a jazz musician's favorite instrument. The novel timbre produced by this instrument combining different mutes and several notes in the highest range has almost become a unique timbre feature of jazz.

Piano, banjo, guitar and later electric guitar occupy an important position with their powerful ability to beat music and play chords. On the contrary, the most important stringed instruments in traditional bands (violin, viola and cello) play a relatively small role.

The rich timbre of the French horn is very attractive in the orchestra, but for the jazz band, its temperament is so tame that almost no one uses it. In an orchestra, every instrument tries to integrate the whole sound in tone and volume control, but in a jazz band, on the contrary, musicians try their best to make every instrument "stand up".

Compared with other music, jazz has many unique features:

1, improvise or sing.

2. Use the blues scale.

3. The complexity of jazz rhythm.

4. Unique jazz chords.

5. Unique timbre application.
