Bebop
Bebop est genus musicae jazz cuius proprietates sunt tempus rapidum ac dexteritas instrumentorum musicorum et perfunctionis extemporalis suspensa mixturà structurae harmonicae, usùs graduum sonorum nec non significationum melodiae per occasionem factarum. Bebop primis et mediis annis 1940 effecta est. Quo factum est, ut hic modus canendi ad ultimum jazz moderna esse putaretur, quia utrumque genus certam maturitatem annis 1960 attigit.

Bebop orta est, cum iuventus jazzicorum modum popularem musicae swing superare vellet novis introductis musicae modis ad saltandum minus aptis, qui nihil nisi attentas aures poscerent. Quia non iam ad modos bebop saltabatur, temporibus rapidioribus uti licuit. Musici bebop praeterea harmonias provectiores, syncopas multiplices, alternationes et extensiones substitutionesque chordarum, phrases asymmetricas, melodias plectiles, rhythmosque inauditos explorabant. Grex bebop in saxophono, trompeta, cithara, clavili, contrabasso tympanorumque apparatu consistere solebat.
