Many of the great classical composers have drawn on jazz for inspiration. Jazz can be divided into many periods and styles, e.g. :- Up to World War II, the story in Europe (and particularly in Britain) was much the same. Jazz by and large remained a specialist music played by musicians who made their living working for dance bands then let their hair down in the small hours playing clubs. Records of British bands of the period (Ambrose, Lew Stone, Ray Noble, Roy Fox and others), like their American counterparts were often spiced with jazz solos, many being magnificent jazz in their own right. A dramatic and regrettable development in Britain post-war was the wholesale discarding of the pre-war musicians, who in the wake of crusading revivalism (which condemned commercially based music of any kind), and bebop (which set store by modernism above all), found themselves prematurely consigned to retirement.
