Actor Wendell Pierce to Host Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio Jazz at Lincoln Center has tapped actor Wendell Pierce (pictured) as the new host of its nationally-broadcast series, Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio. Pierce, who has starred in film and television projects including “The Wire,” and HBO’s forthcoming “Tremé,” will host the hour long Peabody Award–winning radio series. “Jazz at Lincoln Center has become a home for me,” says Pierce, who has been guest narrator at Jazz at Lincoln Center concerts. “I’ve always admired the amount of sweat and soul they put into every performance. I’m honored to share a piece of the music.” photo credit: frank stewart

Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio is broadcast weekly to over 240 public radio affiliates nationwide through the Jazz Satellite Network/WFMT. The radio show – a collaboration between Jazz at Lincoln Center and Murray Street Productions under the direction of Senior Producer Steve Rathe - debuted in 1994 with founding host Ed Bradley, whose voice was the signature of each show until 2006. Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis, who succeeded Bradley in hosting duties from 2006-2009, is delighted that Pierce has joined the show. “Wendell understands the art of swing,” Marsalis says. “He grew up in New Orleans, so that rhythm is in his heart and in his words.”

Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio broadcasts performances captured live at Frederick P. Rose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, and this season’s episodes feature an array of artists including the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, McCoy Tyner, Ravi Coltrane, Marcus Roberts, Dianne Reeves, Joe Lovano and many more.

You can hear Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio every Tuesday night at 9pm on KCSM Radio, 91.1fm and www.kcsm.org

JAZZ PROFILES WITH NANCY WILSON Monday at 9 pm

11/2 Louis Jordan Louis Jordan (pictured) was among the first black entertainers to be successful in a wider pop market. Jordan and his Tympany Five influenced bands like Bill Haley and the Comets — his music is often cited as one of the roots of rock and roll. He was also underrated as a jazz musician, both a fine clarinetist and alto saxophonist. His music is guaranteed to put a smile on the faces of all who hear him.

11/9 Composer/Pianist/Singer/Actor/Bandleader Hoagy Carmichael 11/16 Saxophonist Zoot Sims 11/23 Vocalist Sarah Vaughan Musicians and audiences alike marveled at the ease with which Sarah Vaughan (pictured) moved up and down her four-octave range, turning even the most mundane songs into operatic riffs. Her sound possessed a full-bodied purity, with an approach not unlike an instrumentalist. Early in her career, Sassy cut her teeth on bebop, performing with Billy Eckstine, Dizzy Gillespie, and Charlie Parker. She also ventured into the pop world, recording hits such as Broken-hearted Melody, Day-O, and Send in the Clowns.

11/30 Saxophonist Benny Waters

Pianist Bill Charlap with Houston Person (saxophone), Ethel Ennis (vocals), Peter Washington (bass) and Kenny Washington (drums) perform the book of composer Vernon Duke (pictured.) The perfect fall get away.

PIANO JAZZ WITH MARIAN MCPARTLAND Wednesday at 9 pm

11/4 Remembering Blossom Dearie Singer, pianist and songwriter Blossom Dearie (pictured) had one of the most distinctive voices in jazz. She paired that delicate, childlike delivery with swinging piano playing, decorating such humorous tunes as I'm Shadowing You and My New Celebrity Is You. On this program from 1985, Dearie performs her hits and joins McPartland for a piano duet of Everything I've Got Is Yours.

11/11 Pianist Aaron Diehl 11/18 Randy Brecker with guest host Bill Charlap Trumpeter Randy Brecker (pictured) has been a tireless explorer of all kinds of musical genres, from funk to Brazilian to mainstream jazz. Brecker brought along his group to this Piano Jazz where he joins guest host Bill Charlap and performs some of his own tunes including There's a Mingus A Monk Us, Skunk Funk and Moontide. Charlap joins the group for All the Things You Are.
