	Dixieland
		Dixieland developed in New Orleans at the start of the 20th century, and spread to Chicago and New York by New Orleans bands in the 1910s, and was, for a period, quite popular among the general public.
		There was a revival of Dixieland in the 1950's, which brought many semi-retired musicians a measure of fame late in their lives.
		According to jazz writer Gary Giddins, the term "Dixieland" was widely understood in the early 20th century as a code for "fl music." Frequent references to "Dixieland" were made in the lyrics of popular songs of this era, often written by songwriters of both races who had never been south of New Jersey.

		Dixieland jazz is a style that blends New Orleans jazz and classic jazz--also called "Chicago jazz"--of the 1920s.
		The music is generally thought of as a collective improvisation during the choruses, with individual solos that include riffing by the horns, and a two-to four-bar call and response tag game between the drummer and the full group at the closing of the song.
		One of the most inspirational musicians of the dixieland sound of the 1920s was Louis Armstrong,; who noted opera as a strong influence on his style.

		The original dixieland jazz was the New Orleans style itself, with collective improvisation and improvised counterpoint; it was the avant-garde music of jazz shortly after WWI just as bop was after WWII.
		The rediscovery of Bunk Johnson in the late '30s disappointed some purists, who wanted him to play their preconceived notion of what jazz was, but New Orleans jazz had not stood still in the meantime; nowadays the GFB Foundation continues documenting the New Orleans scene (see Jazzology).
		Dixieland gave pleasure, and was an introduction to jazz for many; musicians like Hackett and Pee Wee Russell transcended category; first-rate modernists like Steve Lacy began in dixieland and others like Herbie Nichols made a living at it while the public ignored their best work.

	Dixieland Jazz Style Summary
		Dixieland Jazz is the traditional or classic form of the Jazz Art.
		The typical instrumentation of an early Dixieland group was a six member group, consisting of the usual front 3 horns, clarinet, trumpet and trombone, backed up by the rhythm section consisting of the tuba, banjo, and drums.
		The technical prowess of Dixieland clarinetists was similarly demonstrated with their florid obbligatos in the altissimo register during the ensemble choruses.

		In 1951, trombonist Turk Murphy formed his own dixieland group for a gig in the Beverly Caverns club in LA. When Turk took his group on tour in 1954, it marked the first time that the music was heard outside of the native San Francisco habitat.
		But, the best of the Dixieland revival was by the Lawson-Haggart Orch., later (in the 70's) to be known as "The Greatest Jazz Band in the World".
		I am sure that if the old Dixielanders could be with us today, they would have a warm feeling knowing that their Good Time, Happy Music lives, and is popular with folks everywhere.

	PBS - JAZZ A Film By Ken Burns: Selected Artist Biography - Original Dixieland Jazz Band
		No member of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band was particularly talented as an improviser, and the group's phrasing was rhythmically stilted; but even so, its collective vigor had an infectious spirit.
		The group presented a new sound rather than a new music; this sound, and the rhythms in which it was couched, appealed to young dancers, who were eager to break away from the rigidly formal dance steps of the era.
		The most passionate advocate of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band's importance to jazz history was LaRocca himself, who never ceased claiming that his band had played a vital role in the "invention" of jazz in New Orleans during the early years of the 20th century.

	Original Dixieland Jass Band
		The Original Dixieland Jazz Band, who billed themselves "The Creators of Jazz", have long been been dismissed as the White guys who copied African-American music, and called it their own.
		The Original Dixieland Jazz Band had recorded for Columbia in January 1917, but the session was unsuccessful and the band had to come back and re-record the songs, thus the release of the Columbia sides did not come about until after the amazing success of the Victor records.

	The Historical Evolution of the Jazz Trombone: Part One
		This new music, often labeled as Dixieland, was the first example of what is generally classified as "jazz." Dixieland jazz was performed by smaller groups, usually for dancing purposes.
		The band--usually a trombonist, cornetist, clarinetist, bass instrument (either a tuba or double bass), chordal instrument (either a banjo or piano), and a drummer--would advertise their dance by marching in parades or playing in a wagon pulled around the street of New Orleans.
		Many, such as Freddie Assunto of the Dukes of Dixieland and Turk Murphy, got their start in the Dixieland revival of the 1940s.

	A "Dixieland" and "Jazz" Overview, Part 1 of 4
		It's rather sad to relate, but even many Americans (the land where Jazz was born) no longer understand the meaning of the expression "Dixieland Jazz".
		If we define 'Jazz' as the free improvisation on a melody, then "Dixieland Jazz" is that type of improvisation which we today associate with bands originally playing in America's 'Southland'.
		That is to say, it is ensemble playing, with each instrumentalist getting adequate 'space' to display' his musical ideas on music written by composers of virtually every nation in the world.
