Jazz is a music genre that originated in the early 20th century in the United States, known for its improvisation, offbeat rhythms, and strong emphasis on individual expression. It blends elements of African, European, and American music traditions, creating a unique and diverse sound. Jazz features instruments like the saxophone, trumpet, piano, double bass, and drums, often with musicians playing spontaneous, unrehearsed solos.
