JazzOn2's Piano Excursions with Jed Distler/December 10 & 13

Airing on the second Sunday and Wednesday of each month, Piano Excursions celebrates the broadest range of jazz piano, hosted by Jed Distler, the Classical Network's Artist-in-Resident, and host of the 2017 ASCAP Deems Taylor/Virgil Thomson Award winning program Between the Keys.

"Although my career is focused on composing and performing contemporary classical music," says Distler, "I started out as a jazz pianist, and I have long been immersed in jazz piano's amazing scope and breadth of styles. On Piano Excursions, I always try to feature an eclectic mix of artists, from familiar names to pianists that deserve greater recognition."

December's line-up proves particularly wide-ranging and inclusive, and will feature (in order of appearance) Earl Hines, Kirk Lightsey, Kenny Barron, Jimmy Yancey, Hank Duncan, Wynton Kelly, Sylvie Courvoisier, André Previn, Mary Lou Williams, Beryl Booker, Geri Allen, Aaron Goldberg, Dave Brubeck and Hampton Hawes.

Listen to Piano Excursions, Sunday December 10th from 8:00 to 10:00 PM, with a rebroadcast Wednesday December 13th from 4:00 to 6:00 PM, streaming live at JazzOn2.org.
