The article is devoted to the formation of the terminology of jazz as a musical genre in the English-language media discourse in the first half of the 20th century. Modern studies of terminology show that terms are associated with special vocabulary and professional communication, and can transfer to terminology from the common language. Professional vocabulary, in turn, belongs to special vocabulary along with terms, but the former can also become the latter in the absence of a terminological equivalent. In art terminology, including musical terminology, a large number of professionalisms are noted. Of musical terminology, the terminology of jazz is of particular interest since its formation took place at the junction of classical musical terminology and English-language professional vocabulary. The article compares three periods in the development of jazz music as presented in the media and describes the formation of jazz terminology in media discourse. The material under study is archival texts of American newspapers of the first half of the 20th century devoted to jazz, which were divided into three sub-corpuses in accordance with the period of publication (1900-1920, 1920-1945, 1945-1950). The contexts of the use of jazz music nominations were extracted from this material, and the nominations were divided into groups: classical and non-classical terms, borrowed and English-language terms. The research methods used include content analysis, component analysis, analysis of vocabulary and contextual definitions. The study revealed that the terminology of jazz of the first half of the 20th century is mainly represented by English-language non-classical nominations and, to a lesser extent, by classical terms from the European academic musical tradition.References
