This week's show features several recent releases including Ingrid Jensen and Steve Treseler playing music by the late Canadian composer Kenny Wheeler in performance at the Royal Room in Seattle, and two recent recordings by Jay Thomas with Oliver Groenewald Newnet, and with Michael Van Bebber in a quintet.
Also this week, pianist Randy Halberstadt plays his adaptation of a Chopin Nocturne and we'll hear a sublime version of Leonard Bernstein's "Somewhere" played by Cannonball Adderley from a 1967 gig at The Penthouse in Seattle, recently issued for the first time.
