“Wendell understands the art of swing. He grew up in the New Orleans, so that rhythm is in his heart and in his words.” Of course, if you’ve seen HBO’s “The Wire” you need no introduction to the man with the rich baritone voice who plays Detective "Bunk" Moreland. As Marsalis notes, he’s a New Orleans native, with a deep appreciation of jazz. In fact, Pierce plays a jazzman’s in Tremé, (tre-May) a forthcoming HBO drama, set in the Crescent City. “Jazz at Lincoln Center has become a home for me. I’ve always admired the amount of sweat and soul they put into every performance. I’m honored to share a piece of the music.” You can find photos, a bio, links to Wendell’s work on, and all you’ll need for program guides and web pages at www.jalc.org/jazzcast. We’ll still hear from Ed Bradley in our featured shows from the archive, and Wynton Marsalis on new shows from Rose Hall. Then plan your winter escape with JALC Radio. Warm your ears and your airwaves as we fly South on the sounds of Brazil, Panama, Cuba and more. Brazilian vocalist Luciana Souza and percussionist Cyro Baptista create a musical landscape of Sao Paulo. Pianist Danilo Perez explores Monk through his homeland of Panama. And our ever spirited maestro Paquito D. Rivera counts off the beat to our Afro-Cuban fiesta. The musical journey keeps going as we send out the good vibes with Bobby Hutcherson, Joe Locke and Stefon Harris. The classic organ/tenor sax combo is revived when the Joey DeFrancesco trio joins up with Vincent Herring, John Nugent and the late David “Fathead” Newman. Pianist Marcus Roberts plays out the entire cycle of ‘Deep in the Shed.’ We have pianist Cyrus Chestnut, guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Christian McBride and Frank Foster joins the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra to end our Winter mix.

"From
Alice Tully Hall, It's Jazz at Lincoln Center … I'm Ed Bradley."
The words felt right the first time Ed read them. That would have been
the rehearsal for our live broadcast and premiere of Jazz at Lincoln Center
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"...
