Jazz is an amazing, superfluous culture that has its roots from 1920s, and continues to live up to the present era. Jazz artists, since time immemorial, have been an exponent of the proliferation of jazz culture. They are the medium upon which a culture was forged.
Jazz artists are required to have a deeply rooted commitment to the culture in order to become effective proponents.  Dedication, commitment, and sheer perseverance are vital traits for jazz artists. It takes all of this to become a leading proponent of the jazz culture. There are two fields where jazz artists could succeed in, namely jazz music and jazz dance.

In music, the jazz artist must be able to express his creativity through his notes. Just like the music, jazz artistry is bound for evolution and change. The jazz artist must adapt to the ever-changing tempo and beat of jazz music. Soloist jazz artists have come about and found secure roles within the culture. Instrumental solos have become commonplace, and gave more channels for jazz artists to succeed in.  One can see the footsteps of famous proponents as examples of true jazz artistry. One such proponent is the jazz artist Loius Armstrong. He was a well known trumpeter who gave the world an illustrious performance in the name of jazz. King Oliver was also a renowned jazz artist that helped jazz expand its horizons with his vibrant improvisations. Benny Goodman was also a chief jazz artist who was famous for his artistic orchestra. They all have excelled in the field of jazz music and created the mark that will be remembered by audiences and jazz artists alike.

Jazz dance requires that the jazz artist is able to cope with the upbeats and improvisations made by the music. Flexibility, swiftness and adaptability are the key aspects of dance that jazz artists must cope with. Prominent jazz artists in the field of dance are Lynn Simonson and Susan Stroman. Simonsom created DancsSpace, which is a special training technique for jazz artists so as to become effective dancers. Stroman is a famous jazz artist in the field of choreography for Music Man. Their contributions to jazz artistry have created profound mileages for jazz by creating techniques and styles.

In any of the fields of jazz culture, jazz artists have been there to ensure its progeny and evolution. Jazz artists must understand this undertaking and live as dignified jazz artists.
