It’s an American Routes Live session of New Orleans Traditional Jazz with Dr. Michael White, the beloved clarinetist leading the Original Liberty Jazz Band, in concert and conversation. Then, we explore the world of Jazz Manouche and its late leading influence, guitarist Django Reinhardt and his historic recordings with violinist Stephane Grapelli from the Quintette du Hot Club de France. We also visit with a contemporary women’s Jazz Manouche band from Quebec: Christine Tassan et les Imposteures. Plus music influenced by Django Reinhardt from Willie Nelson, Bob Wills, the Modern Jazz Quartet, and the Hot Club of Cowtown.

CINCO DE MAYO

April 26th, 2005

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, we’ll celebrate the life and music of Lalo Guerrero—composer of “Cancion Mexicana” and zoot-suit swing and collaborator with groups such as Los Lobos—who passed away this March. Also a visit with young hot Panamanian jazz pianist Danilo Perez, who blends avant-garde with the traditional music of his home country.
