Jazz Unlimited for May 17 is “The Music of Joe Lovano.” Born in Cleveland into a family whose father was a well-respected local tenor sax player, Joe Lovano is now one of the leading saxophonists in jazz. We will hear him with his own groups and with Hank Jones, the Charlie Haden Liberation Music Orchestra, his wife vocalist Judi Silvano, Michel Petrucciani, Gunther Schuller, John Scofield, Saxophone Summit, Tom Harrell, Paul Motian, Grand Slam, Charlie Haden, the Byron Olson Orchestra, Dave Douglas, Ravi Coltrane and McCoy Tyner.
