JazzCats (Jazz Collection of Aggregated Triples) is a prototype project which uses Linked Open Data (LOD) to support musicological, historical, and prosopographical analyses. It has increased access to (and the openness of) data published online through a twofold process: firstly, information hitherto unavailable to users has been shared and incorporated into the project, and secondly, data previously locked in non-Open types (e.g. PDF) has been published in a machine-readable format, increasing discoverability in the context of the wider Web. Connections between datasets that could only be identified through a human user engaging separately with each existing project have now been made explicit, and the resulting aggregated data is queryable from a single userinterface (UI). Three projects contribute to JazzCats: a social network connecting musicians through various types of relationships is provided by LinkedJazz (Pattuelli, 2016); details of solos within performances (including pitch, key, and chord changes) are available from WJazzD (Pfleiderer et al., 2016); and Body&Soul (Bowen, 2013) is a discography of over 200 recordings. These complementary data contain instance-level overlaps for recordings and musicians. Bringing these resources together has enabled a new type of research question, possible only through using criteria from one dataset to inform and hone results from another.
