Question #N915

In the early 1900s, the term "jazz" was used to describe a variety of music, including blues, ragtime, and even some classical music. Although the term has since come to refer more specifically to a particular style of music that originated in the African American communities of New Orleans, itโ€™s often used more broadly to describe any kind of music that is improvisational, rhythmic, and energetic. But "jazz" is often used to describe a variety of music that originated in the African American communities of New Orleans, and is often used more broadly to describe any kind of music that is improvisational, rhythmic, and energetic.
