 | | :''For other article subjects named Jazz see jazz (disambiguation).'' Jazz is a musical art form characterized by blue notes, syncopation, swing, call and response, polyrhythms, and improvisation. |
 | | It has been called the first original art form to develop in the United States of America. |
 | | There were earlier precedents, but free jazz crystalized in the late 1950's, especially via Ornette Coleman, and probably found its greatest exposure in the late 1960s with John Coltrane, Archie Shepp, Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra, Pharaoh Sanders, Sam Rivers, Leroy Jenkins, Don Pullen and others. |
