It's the time for year-end reviews and Top Ten lists. On this week's Jazz Northwest, host Jim Wilke sorts through his stack of CDs by regional jazz artists and plays some tunes from the ones he most enjoyed last year. It's not a count-down and there isn't quite time for ten but these are among those he says he likes to go back and hear again.
Next week (January 3), an unusual concert by Spanish pianist Chano Dominguez who plays jazz with a definite flamenco flavor. The concert features his jazz trio plus guest artists including a dancer. It was recorded at Teatro Zinzanni during the Earshot Festival.
Jazz Northwest is recorded and produced by Jim Wilke exclusively for 88.5 KPLU and streaming at kplu.org.
