scene page
this page shows all the information for a scene. the name of the scene and the person who started the scene are shown at the top of the page.
if you're a memeber of a scene, you can leave it by clicking this icon. any
works and collections you've contributed to the scene will remain unless you delete them
from the scene.
if a scene is almost, but not quite what you're looking for, or if you feel like
you still like the scene but are growing away from it, you can break
away from the main scene and create a new splinter scene. the scene will be like
the scene you're breaking away from, but influenced by your profile tags to
make it uniquely yours.
the match scorebar appears under each item. this shows how good of a match the item is for you: lots of black means it's a good match, lots of red - not so much. your matches will get better the more works and collections you rate and add to your favorites, users you follow with, and scenes you join.

Jazz on Gavagai
started by:

description
The word "jazz" (in early years also spelled "jass") began as a West Coast slang term and was first used to refer to music in Chicago in about 1915.
From its beginnings in the early 20th century jazz has spawned a variety of subgenres: New Orleans Dixieland dating from the early 1910s, big band-style swing from the 1930s and 1940s, bebop from the mid-1940s, a variety of Latin jazz fusions such as Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz, free jazz from the 1950s and 1960s, jazz fusion from the 1970s, acid jazz from the 1980s (which added funk and hip-hop influences), and Nujazz in the 1990s. As the music has spread around the world it has drawn on local national and regional musical cultures, its aesthetics being adapted to its varied environments and giving rise to many distinctive styles.
