Ill. READING:
PASSAGE 1: Read the passage and choose the best answers to thequestions.
Jazz has been called “the art of expression set to music’/and “America’s great contribution to
music’. It has functioned as popular art and enjoyed periods of faitly widespread public response, in
the “jazz age" of the 1920s, in the “swing era’ of the late 1930s and in the peak popularity of modern
jazz in the late 1950s, The standard legend about Jazz is that it originated around the end of the 19th
century in New Orleans and moved up the Mississippi River to Memphis, St. Louis, and finally to
Chicago. It welded together the elements of Ragtime, marching band music, and the Blues. However,
the influences of what led to those early sounds goes back to tribal African drum beats and European
musical structures. Buddy Bolden, a New Orleans barber and cornet player, is generally considered
to have been the first real Jazz musician, around 1891.
What made Jazz significantly different from the other earlier forms of music was the use of
improvisation, Jazz displayed a break from traditional music where a composer wrote an entire piece
of music on paper, leaving the musicians to break their backs playing exactly what was written on
the score. In a Jazz piece, however, the song is simply a starting point, or sort of skeletal guide for
the Jazz musicians to improvise around. Actually, many of the early Jazz musicians were bad sight
readers and some couldn't even read music at all. Generally speaking, these early musicians couldn't
make very much money and were stuck working menial jobs to make a living. The second wave of
New Orleans Jazz,musicians included such memorable players as Joe Oliver, Kid Ory, and Jelly Roll
Morton. Thes@ifmen formed small bands and took the music of earlier musicians, improved its
complexity, and gained greater success. This music is known as “hot Jazz” due to the enormously
fast speeds and rhythmic drive.
A young cornet player by the name of Louis Armstrong was discovered by Joe Oliver in New
Orleans: He soon grew up to become one of the greatest and most successful musicians of all time,
andilater one of the biggest stars in the world. The impact of Armstrong and other talented early
Jazz musicians changed the way we look at music.
