Jazz can be 5/4, or 4/4, or 3/4, or 2/2, or 6/8 (or any other
meter)...just like any other style of music.
The time signature (meter) tells you two things: the top number tells
you how many beats in one measure (bar), the bottom number tells you
what kind of note is worth one beat. When the bottom note is a 4, that
tells you that the quarter note (quill) is worth one beat. So 5/4 tells
you that there are five beats per measure, and the quarter note (quill)
is worth one beat. The time signature does not tell you how fast or
slow to go.
The tempo tells you how fast or slow the beat is going. The tempo for
the Sousa march, "The Stars and Stripes Forever" is 120 beats per
measure...two beats per second; the time signature is 2/2. "Advance,
Australia Fair" is a little slower than that, and the time signature is
4/4.
I thought, when you looked at a blank sheet of music, all the sections
marked out represented a fixed time period and the number of notes
between each two lines were to be played with-in that fixed time-period.

It's more complicated than that as above- sometimes much more. But 5/4 (American notation) id Dave Brubeck day because possibly his most famously known and most often played piece, "Take Five," is in 5/4 time.
But such shenanigans are not limited to Jazz. Most of Genesis' "Dance on a Volcano" (from the "Trick of the Tail" album) is in 7/8 time. And "Turn it

Music in 5/4 time maybe?
Not tempo related...just 5 beats per measure instead of 4.
rather than four, NOT be a change in Tempo??
Or are you suggesting Jazz could be 4/4 or 5/4 or ....??
Jazz can be 5/4, or 4/4, or 3/4, or 2/2, or 6/8 (or any other
meter)...just like any other style of music.
The time signature (meter) tells you two things: the top number
tells you how many beats in one measure (bar), the bottom
number tells you what kind of note is worth one beat. When the
bottom note is a 4, that tells you that the quarter note
(quill) is worth one beat. So 5/4 tells you that there are
five beats per measure, and the quarter note (quill) is worth
one beat. The time signature does not tell you how fast or
slow to go.
The tempo tells you how fast or slow the beat is going. The
tempo for the Sousa march, "The Stars and Stripes Forever" is
120 beats per measure...two beats per second; the time
signature is 2/2. "Advance, Australia Fair" is a little slower
than that, and the time signature is 4/4.
I thought, when you looked at a blank sheet of music, all the
sections marked out represented a fixed time period and the
number of notes between each two lines were to be played with-in
that fixed time-period.
It's more complicated than that as above- sometimes much more. But
5/4 (American notation) id Dave Brubeck day because possibly his
most famously known and most often played piece, "Take Five," is in
5/4 time.
But such shenanigans are not limited to Jazz. Most of Genesis'
"Dance on a Volcano" (from the "Trick of the Tail" album) is in 7/8
time. And "Turn it On Again" is in 13/8 - as is the Stranglers'
"Golden Brown".
And Pink Floyd's "Money" is in 7/4.
