Radio programme about the history of Jazz Piano
Posted: 24 Mar 2011, 20:20
Hi everyone,
It's a while since I posted, but I thought of everyone here and wanted to share this with you.
When I was out in the car yesterday, I heard this programme on Radio Scotland, The Jazz House, and it was a special illustrating the history and development of jazz on the piano.
I found it a fascinating insight into how a simple tune can be adapted in many different ways, most of them quite simple.
It's on again this Sunday, but also on BBC iPlayer for a week, you can find it here:

The special feature is in the second half of the programme, approx 1 hour from the start.
Enjoy!
