I'm writing a novel set in the far future. A young man is riding an elevator and hears jazz for the first time. It's a quartet. I don't have much experience with jazz. So, just in general how would you describe a jazz song without using the word jazz or jazz specific terminology, preferably a quick paced piece of jazz. I have a good starting point, but it feels flat and jazz needs to have character. How would you describe it?
