What is the difference between jazz dance and jazz music?

Music feeds dance. It tells our bodies what to do. The lyrics or mood of the song can tell us what emotion to portray or feel. The beat surges rhythm through our bodies. And vice versa, the dancer tells the story the music is missing and gives life and movement to each rhythm. It's a beautiful relationship and one could not easily go without the other.


When did jazz dance and jazz music separate?

Jazz dance and jazz music began to diverge in the mid-20th century, particularly during the 1950s and 1960s. As jazz music evolved into various subgenres like bebop and cool jazz, jazz dance also developed its own distinct styles, influenced by ballet, modern dance, and other genres. This separation became more pronounced with the rise of jazz dance as a performance art, particularly in musical theater and commercial contexts, while jazz music continued to explore complex improvisation and instrumentation.

Well... Contemporary Jazz is pretty much Jazz Lyrical. It is modern (contemporary) dance with some jazz in the mix. It is usually to soft or medium soft music and the choreography flows. It may have a Jazzy feel to it, or it may not. Contemporary Jazz has more options for themes, choreography, style, ETC.
