A genre (pronounced /ˈʒɑːnrə/, also /ˈdʒɑːnrə/; from French, genre /ʒɑ̃ʀ/, "kind" or "sort", from Latin: genus (stem gener-), Greek: genos, γένος) is a loose set of criteria for a category of composition; the term is often used to categorize literature and speech, but is also used for any other form of art or utterance. Genres are vague categories with no fixed boundaries, they are formed by sets of conventions, and many works cross into multiple genres by way of borrowing and recombining these conventions. The scope of the word "genre" is sometimes confined to art and culture, particularly literature and music, but it has a long history in rhetoric as well. In genre studies the concept of genre is not compared to originality. Rather, all works are recognized as either reflecting on or participating in the conventions of genre. From Wikipedia under the

Q. my friends and i are arguing about the importance of jazz music. i have heard that some popular music genres today have been influenced or originated from jazz. what are some examples? Asked by asdfghjkl; - Sat Jan 2 17:27:43 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. the truth is, nearly all genres of music you would find "popular" have origins in Jazz. Jazz led to Rock and Roll, which branched out into many other forms of music influencing the genres that are popular today. This is not to say, however, that Jazz is the sole influence, as the development of popular music is so complicated that it cannot be said to have one influence. In reality however, you would have a hard time making a case for jazz as a direct influence to popular music, as there is clearly a significant degree of separation, yet the influence is there, if only through the way in which Jazz led to the development of other styles of music that eventually led to that which is today considered popular. to credit Jazz as an… [cont.] Answered by chuck - Sat Jan 2 19:22:48 2010 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Genres"
