The syncopated crackle of a trumpet is a defining characteristic of jazz, which makes it a defining characteristic of American music.   It's the sound of Louis Armstrong; it's also in Bernstein's music.   You hear it in the first few bars of "West Side Story;" it's in the symphonies, the Mass - it's a signature, and it typifies the extraordinary musical voice Bernstein achieved by assaulting the European classical music tradition with his synthesis of American jazz.
