Island 92 Radio today announced the addition of Jazzmasters, a weekly Jazz show to air Monday nights at 8:00 p.m. The show features a mixture of the best classic jazz, contemporary jazz and jazz fusion. The show will also include special features, tributes, interviews and live concerts spanning the last century and beyond.

“This is an amazing opportunity to bring the world of Jazz to the island of St. Maarten and the rest of the world via the Web, “ stated Charles Southworth, executive producer of JAZZMASTERS. “Each week, we have a classic jazz segment with artists like John Coltrane, Dave Brubeck, Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Nina Simone and Count Basie - and more contemporary jazz and jazz fusion with artists like Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Weather Report, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Pat Metheny, George Benson, Joni Mitchell and Al DiMeola. Currently we have people tuning in to JAZZMASTERS from all over the globe via the World Wide Web, and we look to continue to grow our audience over the coming year at Island92.com."

“Island 92 Radio is pleased to add JAZZMASTERS to our evening programming, “ stated Jeffrey Sochrin, general manager of Island 92. “It's very important to bring a wide range of cultural and interesting programming to our evening lineup. JAZZMASTERS is perfect for Jazz fans and will also introduce this classic music to a new audience. In a world where the music of today is pre-fabricated and very corporate, we at Island 92 take pride in providing the alternative. We play the best classic rock, blues, jazz and other great music by creative artists, the way music should be. Our classic rock and blues formats play during the day and, in the evening, we have diverse shows like True Blues with Brian Elliot, Yachtblast with GAZ, Classic Artists Today, Jack Daniels Centerstage Concerts, and Acoustic Cafe - so you can see that JAZZMASTERS is a natural fit. Please tune in every Monday night at 8 for JAZZMASTERS!"
