Bring
Home the Swing!
Join us for Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio’s fifteenth season: the
craft of composition, with practitioners old and new. First up is legend
Thad Jones, in a concert featuring former members of the Thad Jones-Mel
Lewis Orchestra. Other distinguished composers get their due: Duke Ellington,
Gil Evans and – in a celebration of his 100th anniversary year –
saxophonist Benny Carter. Also from the left coast, the Jazz at Lincoln
Center Orchestra gets a lesson in swing from LA conductor and composer
Gerald Wilson and “Pink Panther” saxophonist Plas Johnson.
But it’s not just history. We’ve got brand new works from
Derek Bermel and Dafnis Prieto; Wynton Marsalis’s tribute to Congo
Square; Wycliffe Gordon’s and Darin Atwater’s gospel adventures
and venturesome writing from Dave Douglas, Jason Moran and a fresh crop
of young jazz ambassadors.

Alice Tully Hall, It's Jazz at Lincoln Center … I'm Ed Bradley."

Radio in April, 1994. It was also the premiere of Wynton Marsalis' composition
"Calling the Indians Out" – later to be renamed "Blood
on the Fields"... Read
