Free Jazz – Experimental Jazz with Complete Improvisational Freedom

Free Jazz, emerging in the late 1950s and 60s with pioneers like Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane, is the most experimental form of jazz. Breaking away from traditional harmony, rhythm, and structure, Free Jazz emphasizes pure improvisation and emotional expression. The result is music that is unpredictable, boundary-defying, and deeply intense—an avant-garde journey that challenges both musicians and listeners.
