Piano Jazz for January 23, 2011
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "Brian Lynch"
Trumpeter Brian Lynch possesses a wide command of the jazz spectrum. Often called on by band leaders from Latin, straight ahead, and bebop camps, his 2007 album with Eddie Palmieri, Simpatico, won a Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Album. Lynch joins host Jon Weber for a set of his original tunes and a few standards
For over 20 remarkable years, jazz pianist Marian McPartland and her guests have teamed up for an hour of weekly jazz sessions. Whether it's solos, collaboration, reminiscences, or straight talk about influences and style, no two Piano Jazz sessions are ever the same.
More than 500 exciting, talented, jazz professionals (newcomers and all-time favorites) have joined Marian over the years. In fact, Piano Jazz, a production of South Carolina Educational Radio, has been hailed as the "definitive" place to hear the greats of jazz.
Why? Piano Jazz hits a perfect balance between historical perspective and sheer entertainment, a formula that has made the series the longest-running national performance program on public radio.
