Jazz Northwest: More from SRJO concerts with Ignacio Berroa

 

We recorded an abundance of great material from recent concerts with Ignacio Berroa guesting with the Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra. So much we had three tunes left over after last week's show, so we'll begin this week's Jazz Northwest with that music, including "Grease Bucket" by Wycliffe Gordon,  "Runferyerlife" by Bob Mintzer, and "Splanky" by Neal Hefti for the Count Basie Orchestra.  

Also on this week's show, Richard Cole and Greta Matassa, who will perform at next weekend's Lake Chelan Wine and Jazz Festival, Pete Christlieb and Linda Small, and some prime vintage Cannonball Adderley from a live broadcast at The Penthouse in Seattle in the '60s. 

Jazz Northwest airs Sundays at 2 p.m. on 88.5 KNKX and streams at knkx.org. The program is recorded and produced by host Jim Wilke. After broadcast, shows are archived and available for streaming at jazznw.org.  Listeners may also subscribe to the weekly podcast at knkx.org, NPR, Apple, Google or other sources. Next week (May 19): singer LaVon Hardison is featured with her group in an Art of Jazz concert at The Seattle Art Museum. 

Jim has been a fixture on Seattle radio since 1961. He was the host of Jazz After Hours on Public Radio International from 1984-2014. Currently Jim has been producing Jazz Northwest for KNKX since 1988. This weekly program focuses on the regional jazz scene and frequently includes performances Jim records on location for Jazz Northwest.
