LEGENDS OF JAZZ<\/em> with Ramsey Lewis will start airing this weekend in markets across the country! The show actually debuted last summer with a one-hour special titled Legends of Jazz: The Jazz Masters<\/em>, spotlighting five NEA Jazz Masters, namely vocalist Nancy Wilson, saxophonist James Moody, vocalist Jon Hendricks, Latin jazz artist Paquito D\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Rivera, and Newport Jazz Festival founder George Wein. It must have been successful, because now thirteen half-hour episodes are ready to run on a PBS station near you.<\/p>\n

The first episode is slated to be The Golden Horns<\/a><\/strong> featuring “three of the finest trumpet players in jazz \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the romantic, intimate sound of Chris Botti, the hard bopping Roy Hargrove, and the legendary Clark Terry.” I saw a clip from this at IAJE — CT was doing mumbles, as great as ever. Great Guitars<\/a> <\/strong>featuring dad <\/a><\/strong>and Pat Metheny is slated to be episoide #3, but you never know about these schedules so check your local listings for the day\/time in your area and then watch all of the episodes:<\/p>\n
