This time with a train song by Duke Ellington, a not overplayed standard (actually not even a standard yet), a Jazz at the Philharmonic-style jam session, and a rap classic by a jazz singer (and it works :-)! And much more!
With three of the four pillars on which the entire jazz history rests, JazzNotJazz is a program where a unique mixtape is compiled from 100 years of jazz recordings, with meaningful and sometimes meaningless facts. It’s also about the soul of jazz, so excursions to related styles are definitely made. There are irregular recurring sections, such as “The Not Overplayed Standard,” “Ellington Train Songs,” “Jazz Cameos,” and “More Is Better.”
