THE ANNALS OF JAZZ WITH RICHARD HADLOCK Sundays at 7 pm

The sound of surprise describes both jazz itself and the enduring premise of "The Annals of Jazz." Since 1959, host Richard Hadlock has been improvising on historical themes and bringing forth worthy performers—from Armstrong to Zorn.

Each Sunday, we may find Annals in Europe, Asia, Latin America or Back of Town anywhere.

piano jazz WITH marian mcpartland Wednesday at 9 pm

4/3

Shirley Scott Piano Jazz dips into the archives as we remember the late queen of the organ, Shirley Scott (pictured.) The native Philadelphian was known for her strong sense of swing and straight bebop playing. On this 1992 session, Scott trades her organ for a piano, and takes a solo spin through tunes including Au Privave and Skylark, and joins host McPartland for In A Mellow Tone.

4/10 Mose Allison 4/17 Eddie Palmieri 4/24 Esperanza Spalding Bassist and vocalist Esperanza Spalding (pictured) took the jazz world by storm with her grooving bass lines and neo-soul inspired vocals, and she has since broken into the mainstream, with multiple Grammy Awards. Spalding shows off her dual talents on Lionel Hampton’s Midnight Sun and joins in with her pianist, Leo Genovese, to sing a tune that seems to be her motto: Jazz Ain’t Nothing But Soul.

JAZZSET WITH DEE DEE BRIDGEWATER Thursday at 9 pm 4/4
