  • Music Traditional Jazz Educators Network Resources
    A Traditional Jazz Style Guide by Dave Robinson Foreword For the past 25 years I have been collecting, performing, arranging, teaching, broadcasting and writing about my first musical love, TRADITIONAL JAZZ (aka dixieland, classic jazz, vintage jazz, New Orleans jazz, etc.). This music is frequently misunderstood, and even knowledgeable fans, collectors and musicians disagree on terminology and stylistic divisions. This document presents my view of the most logical stylistic categories of traditional jazz. It is presented as informed opinion, not dogma, and your commentary is welcome. It is hoped that jazz educators will find this guide useful, and that directors of youth ensembles specializing in traditional jazz will make an effort to instill in their bandmembers an understanding of and proficiency in the full spectrum of "flavors" available to them. Towards a Definition of Traditional Jazz Before dividing this pie into logical pieces, we should describe the pie itself. What is "traditional jazz"? What are the common denominators that define it? In my view, "traditional jazz" in the proper sense of the term is jazz which exhibits all or most of the following characteristics: 1) Wind instruments playing polyphonically 2) Easily discernible chord patterns 3) 2/4 or 4/4 meter 4) Instrumentation approximating the following: "FRONT LINE" (HORNS): 1. Trumpet or cornet 2. Clarinet or soprano sax 3. Trombone 4. Tenor, alto or bary sax (sometimes) --or a subset of these RHYTHM SECTION: 1. Piano 2. Banjo or guitar 3. Tuba, string bass or bass sax 4. Drums or washboard --or a subset of these 5) Pre-bop harmonies and phrasing (the earlier the musical vocabulary employed, the greater the compliance to this part of our definition) The single most distinguishing characteristic of traditional jazz is the first element above--the wind instruments playing polyphonically (a New Orleans tradition).
