Tales from the far Side 14.12.17 The Happy Horns of Clark Terry

On this edition you can hear the "Happy Horns" of Clark Terry, one of the most important Jazz trumpeters, fluegelhornists and composers with a brilliant technique and full of rich emotions. And I look back at his extraordinary career, with Terry rising out of the Count Basie Big Band into the Duke Ellington Orchestra and releasing some stunning work as a leader of his own groups and as a sideman with Oscar Peterson and Bob Brookmeier to name only two.

Tales from the far Side 07.12.17 Jazz as a spirit of openness and inclusion ignoring all boundaries

On this edition I would like to show that , from the early years to our modern times, Jazz has and will alway ignore political, social, religious, cultural and linguistic boundaries and speaks to the listener IN ALL LANGUAGES in a spirit of openness and inclusion. Jazz simply learns us a lesson: that people and societies are at their most peaceful when they tolerate each other and work together. Music by Wolfgang Puschnig, Jelly Roll Morton, Charlie Parker, Machito, Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo, Gerry Mulligan, Astor Piazolla, Abdullah Ibrahim, Jan Garbarek and the Indo-Pak Coaltion deliver the soundtrack for this mission.
