Jazz: Historic jazz music was born in New Orleans around 1895. It combines elements of rugtime, band music, blues. It is improvisation that jazz has this different view of traditional music. Usually improvised by one or more players at a time. A songwriter writes music on a piece of paper and a jazz musician tries to play that music. Usually in jazz music, musicians use this song as a starting point for improvisation.

Students should refer to the general history of jazz, the early history of New Orleans, and the jazz sites of early jazz and New Orleans. Next, we gathered the materials to guide the students to identify the influence of the original New Orleans marching band on many of today's marching bands. They may choose to compare and contrast the two groups in terms of music, arrangements, instrumentation, and other characteristics. Each group needs to prepare a class speech. Presentations can be done in various media. Possibilities include a 60-minute "survey" on posters, PowerPoint® presentations on "current and present marching bands" or the impact of early jazz marching bands on today's schools, universities, parades, and / or military marching bands "there is.
