Discovering Cool Jazz
Cool jazz is a style of modern jazz music that arose following World War II. It is characterized by a relaxed tempo and lighter tone, in contrast to the fast and complex bebop style. Dave Brubeck, with his quintet, was one of the prominent figures bringing this soothing yet intricate genre to the world.
