| | The first jazz bands contained a "rhythm section" consisting of a string bass, drums, and a guitar or banjo, and a "melodic section" with one or two cornets, a trombone, a clarinet, and sometimes even a violin. | | | Years later, jazz was taken over by large orchestras; a "society jazz band" contained fifteen or more musicians. | | | But New Orleans was and still remains an important jazz center. |

| | PBS - JAZZ A Film By Ken Burns: Jazz Exchange - Dance and Jazz |
| | As the music gradually evolved out of the dance halls that spawned it and moved more and more into the rarified precincts of the concert hall, one of the loveliest off-shoots of the music's roots was lost. | | | In the last couple of years, the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra has been touring the world playing music on the highest level for both listening and dancing, highlighting the proposition that these two choices are not mutually exclusive. | | | Besides the steps which are synchronized with the musical phrases in the Lindy, there are steps which cross the rhythm of the music in the same fashion as polyrhythms in music. |
