Cats On The Keys 4
Listen to the best jazz pianist you have never heard of – Ted Rosenthal. His resume includes performances with trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, saxophonist David Sanborn and trumpeter Art Farmer. He was the 1988 winner of the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Competition and has fifteen albums to date. His talents as a composer offer inventive music and his performances allow him to “deconstruct” familiar melodies from the Great American Songbook.

Mode Records, Part Two
Craig continues his look at the short-lived Hollywood jazz label from the year 1957. We’ll hear from a new batch of releases that spotlight artists like tenorman Warne Marsh, vibist Terry Gibbs, pianist Ronnie Ball, vocalist Joy Bryan, guitarist Al Viola, drummer Paul Togawa, and a number of other “west-coasters.” Some eye-popping jazz that continues to languish in obscurity. You’ll be glad you tuned in!

Vijay Iyer and the Ojai Music Festival
There’s a long history between jazz and classical music, but it’s never been more sharply focused than it was at the 2017 Ojai Music Festival. That’s all because of this year’s music director: pianist Vijay Iyer. Next time, on Jazz Night in America, new music from Vijay’s acclaimed sextet, and the premiere of his first violin concerto — and we’ll also hear from some of his inspired collaborators, about how this dialogue is breaking down musical barriers.
