SUMMARY:1920s Jazz (Trad jazz\, New Orleans jazz & Early jazz)
DESCRIPTION:Early jazz developed in the 1910s in the ‘melting pot’ of New Orleans\, as players combined influences including ragtime\, blues and marching band music to create a style of jazz that was heavy on collective\, polyphonic improvisation. \nTrumpeter Louis Armstrong was jazz’s first major soloist\, and his recordings with his Hot Five and Hot Seven are some of the most important of the 20th Century. \nBix Beiderbecke played in a lighter\, ‘sweeter’ way than the more operatic Armstrong\, with Bix’s trumpet often accompanied by the saxophonist Frankie Trumbauer.

SUMMARY:Swing music & big band Jazz
DESCRIPTION:From the early 1930s until the late 1940s big band swing was the most popular style of music in the USA\, and many of the most important bandleaders were huge mainstream stars. \nBands usually containing between 11 and 20 musicians would play music that combined ensemble passages\, often riff-based\, with solo sections to entertain large audiences of dancers. \nDuke Ellington\, considered by many to be the greatest composer in jazz\, was a key bandleader\, as were virtuoso clarinettist Benny Goodman\, pianist Count Basie\, Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey\, the ever-popular Glenn Miller\, Artie Shaw\, Stan Kenton and Woody Herman.

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.

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:Cool Jazz
DESCRIPTION:In the late 1940s and through the 1950s a softer\, more relaxed style of playing was marketed as an alternative to the ‘hotter’\, more frantic bebop that was dominant at the time. \nMiles Davis’ Birth of the Cool\, with impressionistic arrangements by Gil Evans\, is a key sound\, as are Gerry Mulligan’s chordless quartet and the cerebral work of pianist-teacher Lennie Tristano and his disciples. \nMany players\, including Stan Getz\, Lee Konitz\, Zoot Sims and Mulligan\, were highly influenced by the swing era saxophonist Lester Young. Artists such as Dave Brubeck and the Modern Jazz Quartet utilised complex arrangements that were influenced by classical music. \n
