每日背誦第五期9
The originators of jazz were African-Americans in the early 20th century who fused African rhythms with European ideas of harmony and melody. Jazz's use of rhythm is unique in that it is “syncopated”; that is, the rhythm is irregular. Jazz is also polyrhythmic, which means many rhythms revolve around one basic one.
爵士樂的創(chuàng)始人是20世紀初期的非洲裔美國人，他們將非洲的節(jié)奏融入歐洲的和聲和旋律的概念中去。爵士樂采用“切分”的演奏是很獨特的；也就是說，節(jié)奏是不規(guī)則的。爵士樂也是多重節(jié)奏的，即多種節(jié)奏圍繞一個基本節(jié)奏而進行。
(短文節(jié)選,本篇始于：“爵”代風華 )
