Music divides into genres, each with its own history and feel. Some grew from a place and community, like the blues and gospel of the American south, reggae from Jamaica, or folk passed down by ear. Others are defined by their tools or tempo, from orchestral classical to electronic techno and ambient. Jazz prizes improvisation, punk prizes energy, and soul and country each tell their own kind of story. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
