2023 Look Back

Click the play button to listen

For this week's show, let's look back at 2023 and give a listen to projects that stuck with me in my listening. This is not a best of the year list. I think of it more of a revisiting of excellent works that I would highly recommend. Welcome friends and neighbors to The Jazz Continuum. Old, new, in, out... wherever the music takes us. Each week, we will explore the elements of jazz from a historical perspective.
