All That Jazz - Ep 4

Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The roots of Jazz include many Afro-American folk music traditions, such as spirituals, work songs, and blues. It also borrowed from 19th century band music and the ragtime style of piano playing. Our hosts walk us through the colourful origins of the genre and discuss its influence on the African continent.
