Listen: There are some things you can sit out. That boring speech by that guy from accounting perhaps, or those vacation slides you've seen a hundred times from your Aunt Matilda perhaps.* But you definitely won't want to miss out on this week's World Music Show (4/11/15).
We hope you’ll join us this week (4/11/15) for Time for the Blues as Henry and I are whipping up some great music for your listening pleasure. It’s been a week since we got to hang out together, so we’re hoping to see your smiling face as you kick back and enjoy.
If you are a jazz fan and you lived in Richmond in the 1990’s, you may recall seeing the master baritone saxophonist Glenn Wilson with his group “The Jazzmaniacs” at Bogart’s Back Room. Seeing one of Wilson’s gigs made you realize that there are indeed great jazz groups outside the confines of New York City or Washington, DC.
The University of Richmond Symphony Orchestra and University Jazz Ensemble are working with internationally-renowned Cuban conductor Daniel Guzman this week, and this collaboration will culimate in two performances at UR's Camp Concert Hall.
What a weird, wooley and wild show I've got lined up for you on this week's World Music Show (4/4). Maybe it's the fact that we just passed one of my favorite non-holidays, April Fools Day. Or perhaps, the reasoning behind this week's line up is that perhaps Spring is finally showing it's springy head. In any event, the tunes, genres, cultures and styles are quite unique.
We hope you’ll join us this weekend (4/4/2015) for Time for the Blues as we do our best to scour the world for great sounds and turn over a few rocks for some bad jokes. Henry and I have plenty of both for your listening pleasure and can’t wait to bring them out for our late night party.
