Early Jazz Considered by some, the only true American Art form!

Blending musical traditions! Items we’ll be discussing: Origins of early recording Impact of technology First composers What early jazz sounds like Impacts of Jazz on music

Early Recording

Early 20 th Century Technology Technology and Media The invention of the phonograph and the radio familiarized many Americans with music from remote places, and gave countless musicians new and more diverse audiences. The marketing of music through broadcasting and record sales not only diversifies musical culture, but changes its aspirations. Cultural Impacts Musicians who once made music for the understanding of a small community, or for everyday ritual purposes, now often made music intent on engaging in a larger dialogue. Listeners were encouraged to seek to understand the music of landscapes and communities remote from their own.

W.C. Handy ( ) Alabama native Middle class/well educated Self taught trumpeter and composer Graduated college w/ honors Became professor at AL black college

W.C. Handy ( ) Was inspired in 1910s by rural music Wanted to compose what he called “new American music” When he died, 150,000 people attended his funeral procession

W.C. Handy ( ) Important Works: Memphis Blues (1912) Memphis Blues Beale St. Blues (1916) Beale St. Blues St. Louis Blues (1919) St. Louis Blues

Early Jazz of 1920s

The Term “Jazz” Refers to virtually any style of music innovated by early 20th-century African American entertainers. Highly influenced by New Orleans’ cultural differences African American musicians living and working along the Miss River were its inventors Preservation Hall Jazz Band-”Short Dress Gal” Preservation Hall Jazz Band

Impact of New Orleans Jazz on Music & Culture Since the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans Jazz has been the “anchor” to help rebuild the city physically as well as culturally Treme on HBO Theme Song Music Brings a City Back

Developments of jazz in the 1920s Josephine Baker

Impact of Jazz on the World Stars like Josephine Baker made jazz an international success Now the whole world was being exposed to this very unique and popular trend in music Music that was seen as very distinctly “American” Bye Bye Blackbird

The Efforts to Preserve Jazz= Preserving America Jazz is considered to be one of our most treasured arts in the U.S. After the Hurricane Katrina storm, efforts have been put in place to “save” this American treasure How do we “preserve” any valuable aspect of a given society? You teach it to the next generations… Young Arts Program Foo Fighters: Sonic Highways-New Orleans
