New Orleans is the city that is considered the birthplace of jazz music. It originated during the time of slavery, when enslaved people on Sundays around Congo Square had the opportunity to sing and exchange their African music rhythms and dances with each other, while at that time in the city a European brass band tradition was also popular, which mixed with Cuban and indigenous influences. In this city, the genre has continuously developed from Ragtime & Dixieland through more traditional forms of jazz towards the early typical New Orleans funk. New Orleans is therefore considered, above all, a typical melting pot of styles. The city is to this day connected with the music genre, and even now new forms of jazz continue to emerge from this remarkable music city. The city has become a pilgrimage site for many musicians and music lovers when it comes to experiencing the various New Orleans music movements and the history of the emergence of jazz.
