Click the play button to listen

This week, our featured artist is pianist/composer Horace Silver. We'll check out a number of his compositions as performed by Ran Blake, Shirley Scott , Tommy Flanagan, Gigi Gryce and Silver himself. From there we will check out works written in homage to the Baroness Panonnica de Koenigswarter—known as Nica—a patron, supporter and friend to many musicians in golden age of jazz. We'll also hear recent works form the Kris Davis Trio, John Chin Trio, Anna Webber Trio, Tyshawn Sorey Trio and finally Immanuel Wilkins who's quartet I just saw here in Philly. Old, new, in, out... wherever the music takes us. Each week, we will explore the elements of jazz from a historical perspective.
