How did jazz come about?

Jazz emerged between 1890 and 1910, in the city of New Orleans, in one of the poorest regions of the United States. The main influences were black work songs, which became popular around the 1840s. At that time, the city was marked by a mixture of black and white cultures and between classical and popular music – it was this mixture that made jazz emerge!
