Music of the 1920s The 1920s was a time for social change, and the music of the era reflected that change. It was the age of Jazz.

Jazz Music Many musical foundations converged in New York City and the new mix of instruments, styles, and themes created Jazz music. This new, upbeat, music brought the younger generation into the clubs to dance and enjoy life. New musicians gained popularity and fame with their new styles, and Jazz music would lead the way for new trends in the future of music.

The Great Migration As the war came to an end, many African-American soldiers returned home to the American south to find the same discrimination they had left along with a lack of jobs or opportunities. Almost a half million of these African- Americans packed up and moved, creating the Great Migration, looking for opportunities in the North and away from the hatred in the South. This great migration would change the culture of the North and would bring many societal changed to America as a whole.

The Harlem Renaissance With the convergence of many different cultures in Harlem in New York City, new styles of music, literature, and more came to the surface of pop culture. The blues and gospel of the south helped to create the smooth jazz sensation, and great artists such as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington brought blacks and whites into the clubs, like the Cotton Club, to dance and enjoy life. In Harlem, the right mix of people opened doors in many areas of pop culture and brought about social change, as well.

Popular Culture Along with the jazz music in the big cities like New York and Chicago, the entire pop culture scene experienced youthful change. Dances, like the Charleston appeared in big clubs where young Americans found freedom and enjoyment. In the speakeasies, illegal alcohol fueled the celebration of life and progress in America.
