jazz club
A jazz club is a venue where the primary entertainment is the performance of live jazz music. Jazz clubs have been in large rooms in the eras of Orchestral jazz and big band jazz and when its popularity as a dance music was common. With the transition to styles like Bebop and later, played by smaller numbers of musicians such as quartets and trios smaller clubs became practical.
Contemporary such venues may be found in the basement of larger residential buildings, or as simple storefront locations. They can be rather small compared to other music venues, reflecting the intimate atmosphere of jazz concerts and long term decline in interest in jazz.〔http://www.jazzwax.com/2008/06/what-killed-jaz.html〕 Despite being called "clubs", these venues are usually not exclusive.
==History==
Before the birth of jazz, and therefore jazz clubs, opera houses and formal balls defined popular live music for most white Americans descended from European immigrants. It was the culture of community that fostered the unique jazz sound, and eventually, the unique jazz club experience. In the so-called birthplace of jazz, New Orleans, these communal events included brass band funerals, music for picnics in parks or ball games, Saturday night fish fries, Sunday camping along the shores of Lake Ponchartrain at Milneburg and Bucktown, red beans and rice banquettes on Mondays, and nightly dances at neighborhood halls all over town.〔http://www.nps.gov/jazz/historyculture/jazz_history.htm〕 This long and deep commitment to music and dance, along with the mixing of musical traditions like spiritual music from the church, the blues carried into town by rural guitar slingers, the minstrel shows inspired by plantation life, the beat and cadence of military marching bands and the syncopation of the ragtime piano, led to the creation of a new way to listen to live music: jazz clubs.
