A form of music developed in early 20th century America by African-Americans, but quickly spread around the world to places such as France and Japan. It basically took every other kind of music that came out before it and turned them upside down. Jazz musicians are often very talented and rise far above simple technical skill into a realm of extremely deep, passionate, abstract soulfulness. The number of artists and musical genres that derive their influence from jazz are innumerable.
Some notable jazz artists include:
Vince Guaraldi
John Coltrane
Thelonious Monk
Miles Davis
Charlie Parker
Dave Brubeck
Bill Evans

The true musicians music. The best music there is and ever will be. Truly creative.
Too many fools are discrediting jazz, and half of them are probably illiterate, materialistic, lost, confused, severly depressed people. The other half are just plain idiots. People who do not see the beauty in jazz are uncivilized. Apparently many people think that there is no lyrical content which proves that their remarks are ignorant, and their pathetic attempt to disrespect a true art form has failed.

An awesome genre of music.
Usually played with saxophones, trumpets, a piano, a guitar, a bass guitar (or upright bass) and a drum kit, but it's sometimes played with strings (violin, cello etc.). You can also have vocal parts as well.
It first originated at the beginning of the 20th century, in central America. It was largely associated with African Americans, but is played by everyone nowadays.
A well known Jazz player and bandleader was Art Blakey (drummer)

The greatest American invention.
It's about the notes you *don't* play.
A genre of music few white people can handle.
A revolutionary musical genre birthed in New Orleans in the early 20th Century by black. Jazz arose from the folk and spiritual music traditions of freed slaves in the Mississippi Delta, and is the patriarch of blues, R&B, Rock & Roll, and all contemporary popular music.
You hear a lot of Jazz around Christmastime
