Although the origin of the term “jazz” is still up for debate, the leading candidate for its source is “jasm,” a word dating back to 1860 that relates to spirit, energy and vigor.
尽管“jazz”一词的起源仍存在争议,但最热门的说法是“jasm”,这个词可以追溯到1860年,与精神、能量和活力有关。
Whether this is the true origin or not, those descriptive words are hallmarks that go together with jazz just as much today as they have through its entire history.
不管这是不是爵士乐的真正起源,这些描述性的词语在今天和爵士乐的整个历史上都是一样的。
The heritage of jazz and its impact on music as we know it is monumental.
正如我们所知,爵士乐的遗产及其对音乐的影响是巨大的。
Arguably, no style of music has managed to seep through cultural tiers, outlive fads and trends or historically been more seminal in spawning great instrumentalists such as jazz has.
可以说,没有任何一种音乐风格能够像爵士乐那样渗透到各个文化阶层,超越时尚和趋势,或者在历史上更有影响力地培养出伟大的乐器演奏家。
Quite simply, it’s in our DNA and is the common thread in the fabric of our musical history.
很简单,它存在于我们的DNA中,是我们音乐史结构中的共同主线。
