Birth Of The Blues Juan Martinez Alex Espinoza

Who was Sidney Bechet ? Sidney Bechet was an American jazz saxophonist, clarinetist, and composer. He was one of Jazz’s greatest musicians.

Where did the Blues come from ? - Blues started with the music of African Americans in the Mississippi Delta and other places in the southern parts of the US, such as New Orleans, and Memphis.

Was the Blues successful after slavery? Virtually all modern music in the West owes a profound debt to the American black man. If not for the soul and expression imported so cruelly from Africa there would be no blues, no soul and no jazz – and hence no R’B, no rock and roll, no rap, no hip hop and no funk. If not for the plaintive laments of black slaves working in cotton plantation in the Mississippi we would probably all still be singing polkas and hillbilly ballads today.

Sidney Bechet Sidney Bechet, one of the great jazz musicians of all time, was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in May He was a Creole of color, a member of a black community that traced its roots back to the French, Spanish, and Caribbean culture that characterized the city before Louisiana became part of the United States. The Bechets were a musical family; the father was a shoemaker who played the flute and Sidney’s brother played the clarinet and trombone, while Sidney took to the clarinet. His extraordinary musical abilities were evident by the time he was ten.
