P ledge D rive V olunteers !
Time and again, pledge drive after pledge drive, our volunteers answer the call (literally and figuratively) to help us when we need them most. Whether it's answering phones, folding letters, stuffing envelopes or helping during festivals, we rely on them to "get us through." They give us the much needed help "in the back room" so we can do what we do best, bring you great jazz! We can never truly express how grateful we are for their loyalty and support.

Vocalist Jackie Cain (May 22, 1928 – Sept. 15, 2014) was half of one of the best-known duos in jazz history, Jackie & Roy. She was an icon in the cabaret world, with a smooth,
feathery voice. On this 1999 edition of Piano Jazz, McPartland and bassist Dean Johnson join Cain for performances of Wait ‘Til You See Her and You Don’t Know What Love Is.
