New Orleans Pt. 1
(Taster)
le)
New Orleans in Louisiana, USA (a.k.a, The Crescent City) is well known for the birth of Jazz in 1895. It’s a combination of Ragtime, Blues and marching bands with the ‘Jazz Age‘ carrying on the dance music style of the late 1900s. Cornetist Buddy Bolden influenced Creole people and artists like Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton & Sidney Bechet.
Migrant Sicilians brought their music to New Orleans and together with Cuban musicians formed the basis of early jazz. The brass marching bands performed in the streets, at funerals, social events, carnivals and parades and still do today. Jazz bands moved on with Ragtime and improvisation.
In the late 1900s Dixieland music originated here but was not a favoured term for African-
Many jazz musicians were recorded in the north although their music is undeniably New Orleans style.
Part 2 continues with Jazz but moves on to Rhythm and Blues, Rock’n’Roll, Soul and Pop.
