Dixieland

Dixieland is a style of jazz music that originated in New Orleans in the early 1900s. It is a combination of ragtime, blues, and brass band music. It is a happy, upbeat style of jazz that is characterized by collective improvisation, syncopation, and a lead instrument playing the melody while the rest of the band plays in support. It is often referred to as "traditional jazz" or "New Orleans jazz." Dixieland has had a long and varied history, from its early roots in New Orleans to its worldwide popularity in the 1950s and beyond. It has been an influential style of jazz for many of today's jazz musicians.
