Abstract

Jazz orkestar je vrsta glazbenog sastava koji se sastoji od 12 do 25 glazbenika. Sastoji se od drvene puhačke sekcije (saksofoni, ponekad klarineti i flaute), limene puhačke sekcije (trube i tromboni) i ritam sekcije (klavir, kontrabas, gitara i bubnjevi). Može sadržavati i neke dodatne instrumente poput vibrafona, raznih udaraljki te vokalne soliste. Glazba jazz orkestra je unaprijed dogovorena i nije improvizirana na licu mjesta. Improvizirana sola se sviraju samo kada ih aranžer skladbe traži u aranžmanu. Svoj je razvoj započeo u prvoj polovici 20. stoljeća. Fletcher Henderson i Duke Ellington bili su dvojica skladatelja i aranžera koji su najznačajnije razvili žanr. Jazz orkestri su bili najpopularniji tijekom razdoblja „swinga“, kada djeluje preko 400 različitih orkestara.

Abstract (english)

A jazz orchestra is a kind of musical group consisting of 12 to 25 musicians. It consists of a wooden section (saxophone, sometimes clarinets and flutes), a brass section (trumpets and trombones) and a rhythm section (piano, double bass, guitar and drums). It may contain some additional instruments such as vibraphone, various percussion and it may contain vocal soloists also. The music of the jazz orchestra has been arranged in advance and is not improvised on the spot. The improvised solos are played only when the arranger of the composition calls for it in the arrangement. It began its development in the first half of the 20th century. Fletcher Henderson and Duke Ellington were the two composers and arrangers who developed the genre most importantly. Jazz orchestras were most popular during the "swing" period, when over 400 different orchestras were active.
