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.
