Recorded use
Wiktionary examplesThese source excerpts show how jazzman appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.
Dans la mesure où le jazzman est un improvisateur, il se démarque en cela de la plupart des autres musiciens, classiques, pop, rock ou traditionnels qui s’attachent à une version d’un morceau, et se contentent de la rejouer telle quelle de concert en concert.
Les jazzmen, quant à eux, n'oublieront jamais ce qu'ils doivent à Charles Trenet, le pionnier qui a permis à la chanson française de s'émanciper des « Marinnella connection » et autres « viens-poupouleries ».
