On the Next All This Jazz: The Dave Brubeck Centennial

Here’s hoping you can tune in for our next broadcast of All This Jazz, airing Saturday the 5th on Public Radio 89.5 KWGS HD-1...from 9pm till midnight! We'll present a tasty, richly varied array of modern jazz, both recent and classic, both newly released and historically treasured...and in the 3rd and thematic hour of our program, running from 11pm to 12am, our special theme with The Dave Brubeck Centennial. The well-beloved pianist, composer, and bandleader (whose career ran from the 1940s until his death in 2012) would have turned 100 this weekend, and thus we’ll hear several of his tunes -- as performed by Brubeck himself and by other jazz greats. And elsewhere in the show, we’ll spin music by Johnathan Blake, Charlie Byrd, Mike Mainieri, Billie Holiday, Ron Miles, and Paul Chambers, among others. Join us, fellow jazz fans! Or, if you prefer, listen to the rebroadcast of All This Jazz on Sunday night, the 6th, from 7pm till 10pm on Jazz 89.5 KWGS HD-2! Thank you.

Scott Gregory started working at Public Radio Tulsa in 2006; he started listening to public radio circa 1980, when he and NPR both marked their tenth birthdays (although only one of them commemorated the occasion with a party at Skate World). Scott became this radio station's Operations Director in the summer of 2023; he also hosts and programs All This Jazz, which airs every Saturday night on Public Radio 89.5-1 from 9pm till midnight.
