Hope you can tune in for the next broadcast of All This Jazz, beginning at 10pm local time on Saturday the 27th, right here on Public Radio 89.5 KWGS-FM -- and online, via live stream, at PublicRadioTulsa.org.
We'll happily hear, in the first half of our two-hour fun-fest, from the likes of Oscar Peterson, Shirley Scott, and The Hot Club of San Francisco. Plus we'll remember the late Gunther Schuller, who died recently at age 89, and who led a remarkable and highly celebrated "double life" in jazz and classical music as a composer, conductor, author, and educator (and who actually coined the term "Third Stream music" in the late 1950s).
And in the latter, theme-driven part of our broadcast, we'll hear such classic summertime tunes as "The Summer Knows," "The Things We Did Last Summer," and, of course, "Summertime" . . . as well as, among others, Dave Brubeck's "Summer Song" and Horace Silver's "Summer in Central Park."
Join us, jazz buffs! We've got the goods and then some.
(The fine print: ATJ airs every Saturday night on Public Radio 89.5, from 10pm until midnight. We always thereafter offer a 7pm re-airing of the program on Sunday evening, on Jazz 89.5-2, which is our station's all-jazz HD Radio channel. Each week, we spin modern jazz, both recent and classic, across a range of styles. And the second half of our show, beginning at 11pm, invariably carries a theme. Also, the latest playlist data can be found here, and we have a weekly blog -- it's called Kind of Blog -- which you'll find at this link. And lastly, just for those so inclined: All This Jazz maintains a Facebook page. Adios.)
