The September 25 Jazz Unlimited show will be a three-part show. The “Keys and Strings Hour “ will feature pianist Gene Harris in the first hour. The second hour will be “Remembering Toots Thielemans.” The Belgian harmonica player and sometime guitarist will be heard with George Shearing, Cleo Laine, Kenny Werner, Mongo Santamaria, Judy Niemack and Joe Lovano. New music for September in the third hour will feature Tim Warfield, John Scofield, the Bad Plus, the pianist Lang Lang, Enrico Pieranunzi, a duet between Andrew Cyrille and Bill McHenry and Quest.
The Slide Show contains my photographs of some of the musicians heard in this show.
The Archive of this show will be available until the morning of October 3, 2016.
