Joe 'King' Oliver's Creole Jazz Band 1. What instruments do you hear? If you're having trouble distinguishing the sounds due to the quality of the antique recording, refer to the text to learn what instruments would have been included in this ensemble in the first place. 2. Is this a large group or a small group? Why? 3. How/why is this indicative of New Orlean's style jazz? 4. Discuss your thoughts on this piece?

Answer:

Honore Dutrey, trombone; Baby Dodds, drums; Joe "King" Oliver, cornet; Bill Johnson, banjo; Johnny Dodds, clarinet; (front) Louis Armstrong, slide trumpet (his main instrument, the trumpet, lies beside him on the floor); and Lil Hardin on piano. We hear the band play "Dippermouth Blues" on CD 3, track 21.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, composision is more dixieland than jazz, I don't think so that is more than 6 - 9 musician, I can hear bas, trombone, drums, banjo, trumpet...

New Orlean's jezz style is like I said, something between jazz and dixieland, you can hear it still today playing by streets musicians.

Joe King Oliver was mentor to Louis Armstrong, and Oliver altering his horn's sound.

Tempo is dinamic, from fast to slower...
