 | | Early jazz influences found their first mainstream expression in the marching band and dance band music of the day, which was the standard form of popular concert music at the turn of century. |  | | At the root of jazz is the blues, the folk music of former African slaves in the U.S. South and their descendants, heavily influenced by West African cultural and musical traditions that evolved as black musicians migrated to the cities. |  | | Jazz has roots in West African cultural and musical expression, and in African American music traditions including blues and ragtime, as well as European military band music. |

| | Ancient Music <b>Historyb> |
 | | Early Christian music, largely monophonic chant influenced by the Jewish cantorial tradition, was entirely vocal as the church attempted to purge the masses of the instrumental music associated with competing religions. |  | | Thus, music came to be revered as the highest of intellectual and artistic pursuits. |  | | Music theorists of the second century A.D. such as Nicomachus of Gerasa and Claudius Ptolemy wrote extensively about the mathematical, moral, and cosmic significance of music. |

| | PBS - American Roots Music : Into the Classroom - Historical Background |
 | | The <b>historyb> of American roots music is intricately woven with individual and collective struggles for social change and freedom from oppression, a dynamic powerfully illustrated by the <b>historyb> of the song "We Shall Overcome," which became an anthem in the Civil Rights movement. |  | | Increasingly, music made by other groups of Americans such as Native Americans, Mexican-Americans, and Cajuns came under the umbrella of "folk music." It was sung in churches, on front porches, in the fields and other workplaces, while rocking children to sleep, and at parties. |  | | Musical cross-fertilization was also hastened by the development of communication technology such as the wax cylinder recorder, the phonograph, juke boxes, the motion picture camera and the radio, which spread regionally based music to broad audiences across the country. |

| | Origins of Jazz |
 | | Jazz represented a break from Western musical traditions, where the composer wrote a piece of music on paper and the musicians then tried their best to play exactly what was in the score. |  | | Most music scholars agree, the early Jazz influences came from the post Civil War and Emancipation era, a time when former slaves were now free to travel about spreading their African Heritage of rhythm and tonality with them. |  | | According to "A Study in Jazz Historiography: The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz." by Eileen Southern, the plantation music of anti-bellum days was one of the forbears of Jazz. |
