Fair use rationale for Jazz

This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

• The sample conveys a musical style discussed directly in the article in a way which cannot be achieved through other means (such as prose). No free equivalent is available or could be created.
• The sample is encoded as an OGG Vorbis at quality setting 1 (low) and is thus of inferior quality to the original work.
• This is a short sample of a much longer work. The length and encoding quality of the sample ensure that the value of the original work is unaffected.
• The song has previously been published and the publication of this sample does not restrict the distribution and sale of the original work.
• On the non-profit Wikipedia website, the sample is provided for informational and educational purposes.
