SUMMARY:Gypsy jazz
DESCRIPTION:Guitarist Django Reinhardt and violinist Stéphane Grapelli created the first major European jazz group when they established the Quintette du Hot Club de France in the late 1930s. \nWith an instrumentation that only featured string instruments\, without drums (Reinhardt\, Grapelli\, two rhythm guitarists and double bass)\, the Quintette’s softer sound allowed the pair’s virtuosic soloing to be heard clearly. \nGypsy jazz remains popular as a sub-genre that is influenced by the American jazz tradition but is very much a unique style\, with its own language and repertoire\, much of which is composed by Reinhardt. \nThis type of jazz has been continued by more recent musicians including Biréli Lagrène and the Rosenberg Trio.

SUMMARY:Bebop
DESCRIPTION:The swing era largely focused upon music for dancing and entertainment. As a reaction against this came bebop\, a style that was fiercely intellectual and very much meant for serious listening. \nFrom the mid-1940s alto saxophonist Charlie Parker\, trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie and pianist Bud Powell all improvised complex linear phrases full of surprising accents and chromatic passing notes\, often at very fast tempos. \nMinton’s Playhouse in Harlem was a key breeding ground\, with Thelonious Monk\, Kenny Clarke and Charlie Christian exploring the new sounds at all-night jam sessions. \nPlayers would often write intricate new melodies over the chord progressions of existing jazz standards\, in part so they could claim the composition royalties themselves. Examples of famous jazz songs from the bebop era include ‘Ornithology’ (based upon ‘How High The Moon’)\, ‘Donna Lee’ (based upon ‘Indiana’) and ‘Anthropology’ (based upon ‘I Got Rhythm’). \nYou can check out our overview of the best bebop artists in jazz history here.
