Since 1959, host Richard Hadlock has been improvising on historical themes and bringing forth worthy performers—from Armstrong to Zorn. Each Sunday, we may find Annals in Europe, Asia, Latin America or Back of Town anywhere.

JAZZ PROFILES WITH NANCY WILSON Monday at 9 pm
10/4 Reedman Sidney Bechet 10/11 Pianist/Composer Mary Lou Williams Mary Lou Williams (pictured) achieved and maintained a status that many women in jazz found elusive: unwavering respect from male colleagues as a musical equal. Her accomplishments are many as arranger and pianist with Andy Kirk and his Twelve Clouds of Joy, with her own small groups, and with the be-bop artists of the '40s. Throughout, she was always - as Duke Ellington once said - "perpetually contemporary."
10/18 Louis Armstrong-The Man and His Music Part 1 It's hard to overstate the incredible reach of this original American artist. Louis Armstrong (pictured) defined American culture and did it with the force of his talent as a musician, singer, composer, author, innovator, entertainer, actor, and bandleader. He transcended racial barriers and became America's ambassador to the world.
10/25 Louis Armstrong-The Man and His Music Part 2 Louis Daniel Armstrong transcended a lifetime of obstacles to become America's most influential singer and trumpeter. In the process, he became a true American hero, shaping the destiny of the jazz world forever. By going from rags to riches, Louis Armstrong realized the American dream and became arguably the most important artist in American culture.
JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER WITH WENDELL PIERCE Tuesday at 9 pm
10/5 Intuition: The Music of Bill Evans Perpetually sensitive in style and spirit, pianist Bill Evans (pictured) was driven by a ‘quiet fire’ that has influenced entire generations of pianists. Guest musical director Bill Charlap with guitarist and Evans collaborator Jim Hall and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra pay tribute with classics like Waltz for Debby, Five and Peri’s Scope.
10/12 John Coltrane – The Breakthrough: Giant Steps 10/19 Kansas City: K.C. and The Count 10/26 Regina Carter with Reverse Thread and Stefon Harris with Blackout What do the sounds of the violin, kora, accordion, vibraphone and vocoder have in common? In the hands of innovative jazz fiddler Regina Carter (pictured) and vibraphonist Stefon Harris, they explore their past to create a very contemporary sound. With kora player Yacouba Sissoko and accordionist Will Holshouser, Carter explores the music of Africa – from Ugandan Jewish songs to traditional folk music of Madagascar and Mali. Harris and his band Blackout find inspiration in the funk and soul sound of the 70s.

He brings his free jazz trio, the Nels Cline Singers (which includes no singers!), to this Piano Jazz session with guest host Jon Weber for a set of richly layered free improvisations and a familiar tune or two.
10/13 Marian Selects: Bill Evans 10/20 Alicia Keys Grammy award-winning vocalist Alicia Keys (pictured) has rocked the pop and R&B worlds with her velvet voice and soulful piano playing. This New York native blends the influences of jazz greats such as Fats Waller and Oscar Peterson with a songwriting style inspired by Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, and Donny Hathaway. On this session from 2006, Keys plays one of her signature tunes, Fallin, and joins McPartland on Good Morning Heartache.
