True, the music is so complex, but its completely improvised at least 90% of the time...I dont think anything could be that harder to play.
Maybe Bluegrass is just as hard to play, it requires a lot of skill and focus, but Jazz as a musical form is just much more complicated, i would give it the edge, even over classical music, most musicians in that genre compromise, and they have all the time in the world to practice for a musical piece, jazz musicians are not like that, they come up with stuff right on the spot, which has to be more challenging than just playing what you read on a sheet of paper.
