Jazz Purely American art music Musical features: Syncopation and Improvisation

Syncopation - an accent (emphasis) placed on a beat that is normally not accented. In Jazz, this is further subdivided to an accent placed in between the beats, and this is called "swing". How hard something swings depends on where the accent is placed in between the beat. Swing - syncopation between the beats.

Improvisation - a spontaneous reaction to the musical environment. Occurs most often in jazz solos. Is NOT simply "making it up as you go along".

Jazz Background: Ragtime and Blues Ragtime - piano style. Left hand steady beat and straight rhythm, right hand syncopation. Composed. NO IMPROVISATION (Scott Joplin) Blues - usually guitar and voice. Improvised over fairly loose framework.

Jazz Terms Head - the main part of the song form that includes the melody. Heard at the beginning and end of a jazz tune. Solo - an improvised melody that goes along with the song form structure (in the middle of the jazz tune). Chorus - one time through the song form structure.

Form - the framework of a song or work. Many jazz tunes are AABA form. AABA - 32 bar (measure) form where section A is 8 measures and repeated, followed by a contrasting B section for 8 measures, then the A section (8 measures) returns for one time.

Standard - a song that has made its way into the standard repertoire. Often songs from the "Great American Songbook". Everyone performs standards, and usually none are remarkable...

Cover - A remake of a particular song by a particular artist. Often the remake is done in a strategic way to outsell the original (or at least that's the plan!).
