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 fairly 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 composers 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. These men 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, and later 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.

(A) Why did Ragtime, marching band music, and the Blues lose popularity after about 1900?

( ID: 91131 ) Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to

indicate the correct answer to each of the questions that follow

Legend has it that sometime toward the end of the Civil War (1861-1865) a government train carrying

oxen traveling through the northern plains of eastern Wyoming was caught in a snowstorm and had to be

abandoned. The driver returned the next spring to see what had become of his cargo. Instead of the

skeletons he had expected to find, he saw his oxen, living, fat, and healthy. How had they survived?

The answer lay in a resource that unknowing Americans lands trampled underfoot in their haste to cross

the “Great American Desert” to reach lands that sometimes proved barren. In the eastern parts of the

United States, the preferred grass for forage was a cultivated plant. It grew well with enough rain, then

when cut and stored it would cure and become nourishing hay for winter feed. But in the dry grazing

lands of the West that familiar bluejoint grass was often killed by drought. To raise cattle out there

seemed risky or even hopeless. Who could imagine a fairy-tale grass that required no rain and somehow

made it possible for cattle to feed themselves all winter? But the surprising western wild grasses did

just that. They had wonderfully convenient features that made them superior to the cultivated eastern

grasses. Variously known as buffalo grass, grama grass, or mesquite grass, not only were they immune to

drought; but they were actually preserved by the lack of summer and autumn rains. They were not juicy

like the cultivated eastern grasses, but had short, hard stems. And they did not need to be cured in a barn,

but dried right where they grew on the ground.

When they dried in this way, they remained naturally sweet and nourishing through the winter. Cattle left

outdoors to fend for themselves thrived on this hay. And the cattle themselves helped plant the fresh grass

year after year for they trampled the natural seeds firmly into the soil to be watered by the melting snows

of winter and the occasional rains of spring. The dry summer air cured them much as storing in a barn

cured the cultivated grasses.

A. A type of wild vegetation B. Western migration after Civil War

C. The raising of cattle D. The climate of the Western United States
