The Jazz Band
Jazz (swing in particular) is basically a legato style. Everything usually has a smooth flow and is energized by using breath accents and different forms of legato articulation. A warmup exercise that includes different forms of legato articulation is a good place to begin work on jazz style and articulation. One example of an exercise to develop this concept is to play different slur patterns on scales and gradually add syncopated legato articulations.
