The beginnings of this American music are connected to African Americans and to people who brought musical traditions from Africa to the United States.
This type of music developed by bringing several musical traditions together. An important feature is that performers can invent or change the music while they are playing.
At the end of the 19th century, musicians began performing this new music in places such as bars and clubs. One city in particular became famous for it and attracted visitors from many countries.
This music did not stay popular only in small clubs. During the 20th century, it spread across America and later became an international form of music, performed and shared at festivals around the world.
