In conclusion from the music of mid evil times to Rhythm & Blues and beyond, music continues to change adding new Subgenres and even new genres into what will always be looked at as the evolution of music.
The first appearance of the blues is often dated after the Emancipation act of 1863, which was the movement to stop slave trade 1870 and 1900, a period that coincides with emancipation and, later, the development of juke joints as places where Blacks went to listen to music, dance, or gamble after a hard day's work. Scholars characterized the early 1900s development of blues music as a move from group performances to a more individualized style. They would argue that the development of the blues is associated with the newly acquired freedom of the enslaved people. There are few characteristics common to all blues music, because the genre took its shape from the idiosyncrasies of individual performances. However, there are some characteristics that were present long before the creation of the modern blues. Call-and-response shouts were an early form of blues-like music; they were a "functional expression . . . style without accompaniment or harmony and unbounded by the formality of any particular musical structure. Blues has evolved from the unaccompanied vocal music and oral traditions of slaves imported from West Africa and rural blacks into a wide variety of styles and subgenres, with regional variations across the United States.
