May 18, 2019 - Jazz at the Organ

One of the unsung heroes in jazz music is the organ. Whether it be a Hammond B3 or a Wurlitzer Theatre organ, the organ itself has been a pivotal player in the development of classic and contemporary jazz. Join host Jay Daniels for “Jazz at the Organ” with performances by Jackie Davis, Fats Waller, Jimmy Smith, Radam Schwartz, and others. We’ll see you on the radio!
