Meanings of "Jam session"

English

An informal session where musicians have a get together, and play together. Often in an improvisation, but can also be organized sheet music. Many non-orchestral musicians do not read sheet music, but play by hear. This term is slang and refers more to jazz, blues, rock, types of music rather than classical, which is quite rigorous.
Jam referring to playing music well and loudly. "That lead guitar player was jamming at that concert last night." Slang, but used at an organized concert and meaning well played and enjoyed.
