******************** THE ORIGIN & HISTORY OF VOCAL JAZZ MUSIC ********************
Vocal jazz or jazz singing is an instrumental style to the voice, where the singer can “match the instruments in their stylistic approach to the lyrics, improvised or otherwise, or through scat singing” (or the usage of non-morphemic syllables to emulate the instruments’ sounds).
The origins of jazz music were actually really very vocal, with ceremonial chants and field hollers, but early jazz groups only featured vocalists infrequently. Louis Armstrong is recognized for entrenching singing as a separate Jazz art form; he realized that singers could also ad-lib just like an instrumentalist. Armstrong partnered with American vocalist Adelaide Hall to lay the foundation for scat singing as a bulwark of the art of Vocal jazz. Vocal music has mainly been performed by a soloist or a very small band of singers. This has evolved through the years; now Vocal jazz ensemble usually consists of a choir of 8-16 singers with a rhythm section (often comprised of a drummer, bassist, guitarist, and pianist.
Some of the prominent Vocal jazz musicians include Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Julie London, Billy Eckstine, Vic Damone, Mel Tormé, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Lambert, Hendricks & Ross, Dean Martin, Joe Williams, Tony Bennett, Anita O'Day, Dinah Washington Carmen McRae, Chris Connor, June Christy, and Eartha Kitt.
