It【C2】________ among black Americans at the end of the 19th century, at a time when they occupied the very【C3】________ of the American social heap.

The solos are a celebration of individual brilliance that can’t take place without the group efforts of the rhythm section. Beyond that, though, jazz has a connection to the essence of America in a much more fundamental【C9】________ . It is an expression of the African___【C10】________ of American culture, a musical medium that exemplifies the culture of the Africans whose culture came to dominate much of what is American.
