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.

JAZZ PROFILES WITH NANCY WILSON Monday at 9 pm 7/1

Pianist/Composer Horace Silver

7/8

Producer/Arranger Quincy Jones While "Q" (b. 1933) is probably best known for his work in television, film, and popular recordings, he has deep roots in jazz. Quincy (pictured) started out as a teenage trumpeter and arranger with the Lionel Hampton band.

His tremendous passion for jazz led to collaborations with Count Basie, Billy Eckstine, and Frank Sinatra.

7/15 Bassist Ray Brown 7/22 Composer/Bandleader Tom Talbert 7/29 Pianist Jaki Byard Writing in memory of Jaki Byard (1922-1999), Peter Watrous noted that Byard (pictured) "was a stylistic virtuoso, his fecund imagination saw comparisons and contrasts everywhere and his improvisations were encyclopedic and profound. He also had a sense of humor that rippled through everything he played." Byard's playing was all encompassing, covering everything from stride and ragtime to modern polyrhythms and atonality. Principally acknowledged as a pianist, Byard's eclectic stylings enhanced the music of Maynard Ferguson, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, and Charles Mingus.

JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER WITH WENDELL PIERCE Tuesday at 9 pm 7/2

The Music of Fats Waller

7/9

Bobby McFerrin - VOCAbuLarieS

The Music of Cachao Lopez ‘Mambo’ translated from Kikongo, - the Creole language of Cuba, means “conversation with the gods.” Bassist Israel Cachao Lopez (pictured) enlightened the jazz world with the divine Afro-Cuban rhythms from his native Cuba.

Our own bassist Carlos Henriquez uplifts the Rose Theater with the ultimate ‘discarga’ jam session in honor of the late ‘Cachao’.

7/23 The Music of Sarah Vaughan

Brash vocals earned Sarah Vaughan (pictured) the titles “Sassy” and “The Divine One”. Musical director and pianist Eric Reeds leads this celebration of her work through the glorious range of Jane Monheit and Mary Stallings’ sure swing.

Tony DeSare Vocalist/pianist Tony DeSare (pictured) got his big break playing the lead in the Off-Broadway musical Our Sinatra and has been a pillar of retro cool ever since. But he also performs original music along with sets of beloved standards. This week, DeSare sings and plays his deliciously romantic original, How I Will Say I Love You, and McPartland backs him on Memories of You.

7/10 Bassist Ron Carter 7/17 Remembering Pianist John Bunch 7/24 Lalo Schifrin Composer, arranger, conductor and pianist Lalo Schifrin (pictured) has authored some of the most famous music in film and TV history. His compositions include the original Mission: Impossible theme and the scores to Bullitt, Cool Hand Luke, and the Dirty Harry films. Schifrin performs his tunes Down Here On The Ground and Chano, and joins McPartland for a duet of Woody’n You.

Thank You To Everyone Involved In Jazz On The Hill After a 9-year hiatus, Jazz On The Hill 2013 welcomed over 4,000 people on June 1st. It was a beautiful day to celebrate, welcome new friends and come together through music.

It takes a village to put on a festival, and Jazz On The Hill was no different. We would like to thank everyone who worked so hard to make this festival a success: our small full-time staff of 15 (who—the next day—were definitely feeling every one of those years since the last time we did this!) to our part-time on-air announcers, our army of volunteers, and the talented musicians who put on great performances.

We are grateful for your ongoing support of this community jazz station. You are part of something special...so spread the word. And, we'll see you next year!
