Important early practitioners include Buddy Bolden (1877-1931), Jelly Roll Morton 188?-1941), Joe "King" Oliver (1885-1938), The Original Dixieland Jazz Band (influential between 1917 and the mid-1920s), Duke Ellington (1899-1974), and Louis Armstrong 1901-71).
Jazz evolved into myriad forms including Big Band (1920s onwards), Swing (1930s onwards), Bebop (1940s onwards), Jump Blues (1940s and 50s), Cool Jazz (1940s onwards), and avant-garde Jazz (1950s onwards).
