Special Archives Edition with Unreleased Performances from the 1st Season, & ‘Building Blocks of Jazz’ Makes it’s Premier, March 2009

    In this episode, we go digging into the show archives for extra performances we didn’t have time to include in our earlier programs. You’ll hear new performances from Trio Tres Bien, David Venn, Tom Byrne, Peter Martin, and Riverboat Jazz pianist and vocalist Dr. Jeannie Kittrell. We’ll take a look at last summer’s Old Webster Jazz and Blues Festival with memorable performances by Anita Rosamond, Erin Bode, and the Webster Groves High School Jazz Band. And we premiere a new segment with the focus on jazz education, The Building Blocks of Jazz with Jazz St. Louis Education Director Phil Dunlap. This segment explores and explains the jazz concept of improvisation.
