Episode 10: The Jazz Evolution


Premiered February 9, 2021

Some may observe that Jazz is mature music in an adolescent world, which faces a cultural clash between the older and younger generations of musicians. Founder, president, and CEO of the non-profit organization Jazz Aspen Snowmass (JAS), Jim Horowitz interviews six-time GRAMMY®-winning jazz bassist and JAS Academy artistic director Christian McBride. McBride’s credentials include being the host and producer of “The Lowdown: Conversations with Christian” on SiriusXM and “Jazz Night in America” on National Public Radio. Find out the importance of conducting business as a musician, breaking the “tortured artist” stereotype, and fixing the number one bad habit all young musicians make. Above all, stay current with what the future may hold for Jazz in the times of COVID-19. Applications for the JAS Academy are still available. Visit https://app.getacceptd.com/jazzaspen today!
