ECM-Style Jazz is a jazz subgenre that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is characterized by a focus on acoustic instrumentation, a sparse and often minimalistic approach to composition, and a focus on improvisation. It is often associated with the ECM record label, which was founded in 1969 and has released many albums in this style. ECM-Style Jazz is often seen as a reaction to the more commercialized and heavily produced jazz of the time, and is often seen as a more introspective and contemplative style of jazz.
