Over the past three years of the Contest, NPR Music has seen thousands of entries from all 50 states, has furthered its mission as a platform for music discovery, and has catapulted winners to tremendous success. Last year’s winner, the New Orleans soul group Tank and the Bangas, currently is touring Australia and New Zealand. 2016’s winner, violinist Gaelynn Lea, has released two albums and played shows worldwide.

Fantastic Negrito, the 2015 contest winner, nabbed a Grammy last year for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

“This Contest has brought out the creatives in our country,” says Bob Boilen, who hosts All Songs Considered Friday nights at 7 on WFIU2, and who developed the Tiny Desk concert series in 2008. “Over the last three years, the Contest has celebrated the vibrant music community. I simply can’t wait to see and hear what we get in this year.”

Though there is one winner every year, artists have benefited from joining the Tiny Desk Contest community — whether they’re featured on the Contest’s music discovery Tumblr page, the weekly newsletter with thousands of subscribers, one of the Tiny Desk supercut videos, one of the local tour stops, or even a Tiny Desk concert down the line.

Jazz Notes

Here are some of the guests we have lined in for future Profiles interviews. No definite airdates have been set, but we expect to broadcast interviews with the following people over the next few weeks and months.

March is Women’s History Month, and WFIU’s jazz department honors the theme with a variety of programs. Jazz pianist Monika Herzig swings by on Thursday, March 1 for what’s become an annual Just You And Me celebration of women in jazz, featuring some of her favorite musicians and bringing us up to date on her ongoing efforts as an advocate and educator. On Thursday, March 15, we’ll feature Indiana jazz women such as Sara Caswell, Sophie Faught, and Amanda Gardier.

Saturdays at 5 p.m. on WFIU2 | Sundays at 6 p.m. on WFIU

Noah Bendix-Balgley Noah Bendix-Balgley, the Berlin Philharmonic first concertmaster and a former IU Wells Scholar, recently returned to his alma mater as the Class of 1941 Wells Scholar Program Professor. His visit included, alongside masterclasses for students in the IU Jacobs School of Music and schoolchildren in the IU Strings Academy, a performance of his klezmer violin concerto, FidlFantazye, with the IU Philharmonic.

Susan Boynton and John Glasenapp Susan Boynton is a professor of historical musicology at Columbia University. One of her research areas is liturgy and music in medieval Western monasticism. She visited the IU campus with her former student, John Glasenapp, who now is a monk at St. Meinrad’s, to conduct a workshop about liturgical manuscripts. Together they reveal what those manuscripts, which contained the words and music for religious rites that took place in monasteries, have to tell us about centuries-old worship traditions.

Tune in throughout March for other programs spotlighting both the legacy and modern-day role of women in jazz.

Night Lights pays tribute to the month’s motif with shows about women jazz artists of the 1940s (March 9), the unique jazz harp of Dorothy Ashby

Kathleen Hall Jamieson Kathleen Hall Jamieson is a professor of communication at the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication. Her research areas include political communication, rhetorical theory and criticism, and the discourse of the presidency. She is the author or co-author of more than one hundred works, including Presidents Creating the Presidency, unSpun: Finding Facts in a World of Disinformation, and The Obama Victory: How Media, Money and Message Shaped the 2008 Election. She recently co-edited The Oxford Handbook on Political Communication.

Marco Arnaudo Marco Arnaudo is professor of Italian and director of Graduate Studies, Italian, at IU Bloomington. His research ranges from Italian culture of the Baroque period, to American comics, military history, and gaming culture. He has taught courses on 17th- and 18th-century theater, Italian migrations, history and theory of the superhero genre, detectives and spies in fiction, and theories and practices of conflict and cooperation.

His publications include a volume on the influence of Dante’s Divine Comedy and a modern edition of the 17th-century erotic comedy Il natal di Amore by Giulio Strozzi.

Philanthropy in the Age of Tax Reform Now that the tax reform bill has passed, giving in 2018 may look different to many.

With the standard deduction for joint filers set at $24,000, nearly double the previous rate, itemizing for many contributors will no longer be an option.

How to make the most of your gifts?

If you are 70½, a gift made with the IRA Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) reduces your taxable income and requires no itemization to take advantage of a tax savings. IRA Charitable Rollover gifts can be made in a range of $50 to $100,000.

ago to give you a fresh look at the Hoosier state.

A few hundred years ago, old growth forests, tall grass prairies, and one of the largest wetlands in the country covered Indiana. But by the 21st century Indiana was one of the most developed of the Gifts made to charities from stocks or real estate that have increased in value will still offer a capital gains savings. In addition, funding charitable gifts annuities with appreciated stock is a tax-wise choice.

For donors with more assets, the new law expands the AGI limitation from 50% to 60% and allows donors to carry over contributions on their taxes for up to five years, allowing greater tax savings.

As always, designating a charitable organization as a beneficiary of your retirement plan assets is easy and doesn’t hurt your pocketbook today. Simply request a beneficiary form from your plan administrator.

Along the Ohio River cypress swamps can be found, looking more like the Gulf Coast than the Midwest. Nearby, an underground wilderness is perhaps the least known area of the state, with cavernous rooms, blind cave creatures, flowing rivers, and rock formations millions of years old.

From hidden waterfalls and glacially carved gorges, through the canopy of an ancient forest, to one of the largest prairie restoration projects in the country, Indiana is still a wild place.

And contributions to Indiana Colleges still offer a tax credit on your state taxes. It’s all there on form CC-40.

For more information on taking advantage of the tax reform rules, consult your financial advisor. Additional information on ways to make a gift of stock, retirement fund designations, Charitable Gift Annuities, and the IRA Charitable Rollover, go to WFIU.org/support.
