布魯斯和爵士樂(lè)
十九世紀(jì)前以及在十九世紀(jì)，歐洲人和美國(guó)人把非洲人作為奴隸帶到了美洲。這些非洲人帶來(lái)了他們的音樂(lè)。美國(guó)內(nèi)戰(zhàn)
（1861@@1865）后，美國(guó)黑人成了自由人。他們的美國(guó)黑人音樂(lè)也聲名遠(yuǎn)揚(yáng)。它開(kāi)始于南方的路易斯安那和密西西比，后來(lái)傳到了北方。這種音樂(lè)后來(lái)演變成布魯斯，再后來(lái)成了爵士樂(lè)。
布魯斯和爵士樂(lè)在二十世紀(jì)變得非常流行。吟唱布魯斯樂(lè)曲的人通常很悲傷，他通常失去了什么，可能是親人、金錢或者工作。布魯斯有時(shí)候以一種有趣的方式表達(dá)悲傷的情感。最早人們只用一兩種樂(lè)器演奏布魯斯，例如，吉它、口琴或者有時(shí)候是鋼琴。有時(shí)吟唱時(shí)沒(méi)有任何樂(lè)器伴奏。貝西金是著名的布魯斯音樂(lè)家。
爵士樂(lè)緊隨著布魯斯而出現(xiàn)。作曲家們使用了更多的樂(lè)器。爵士樂(lè)表現(xiàn)很歡樂(lè)的情感，節(jié)奏也更快些。杜克馬薩里斯是著名的爵士音樂(lè)家。
演奏布魯斯和爵士樂(lè)的樂(lè)手為表達(dá)自己的情感會(huì)改變曲調(diào)。他們每次演奏的方式都不一樣。當(dāng)今世上還有很多人喜歡聽(tīng)布魯斯和爵士樂(lè)，因?yàn)槊總€(gè)人都不時(shí)會(huì)有強(qiáng)烈的情感要表達(dá)。
Lesson21 Blues and Jazz
People from Europe and America brought Africans to America as slaves before and during the nineteenth century. These Africans brought their music with them. After the American Civil War (1861&1865), the African-American people in the United States were not slaves. Their African-American music became famous. It started in the South, in Louisiana and Mississippi. Then it travelled to the north. This music became blues and then jazz.
Blues and jazz became very popular in the twentieth century. A person who "sings the blues" feels sad. Usually, he or she lost something - a person or maybe money or a job. Blues express sad feelings sometimes in a funny way. People played blues first with only one or two instruments, for example, a guitar, a harmonica, or sometimes a piano. Sometimes they sang without any instruments. Some famous blues musicians are Bessie Smith, John Lee Hooker, and B.B. King.
Jazz came soon after blues. Composers added more musical instruments. Jazz can be happier and is often faster. Some famous jazz musicians are Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, and Wynton Marsalis.
Musicians who play blues and jazz change the music to show their emotions. They play the music differently each time.
Today people all over the world still like to listen to blues and jazz because all people have strong emotional feelings sometimes.
