Post-bop

Post-bop is a modern jazz genre that emerged in the 1960s, building on the innovations of hard bop while incorporating elements of modal jazz, free jazz, and avant-garde techniques. Characterized by intricate harmonic progressions, sophisticated rhythms, and expressive improvisation, post-bop blends structured compositions with adventurous spontaneity. Artists in the style, such as Dmitry Baevsky and Martin Bejerano, often emphasize fluid interplay between instruments, dynamic phrasing, and complex chordal movement. The genre continues to evolve, maintaining a balance between tradition and innovation while showcasing technical virtuosity and emotive depth.
