    Jazz didn't ever succeed of being really popular in Greek society
    and I can say that I'm certainly NOT the one to call what's the sound of jazz.
    So you can always try to find some people who know more about this specific kind of music.
    Since i do not want to leave your question without ANY answer, I only have to suggest a group called NAMA
    and of course Mimis Plessas a composer who studied chemistry during the 40's in US.

    These are some examples of NAMA works, and also some Plessas hit while working on jazz style.
    Plessas has written jazz music but he is best known for his "laika" songs.

    Hope I helped.
