Jazz Northwest For April 1, 2018

Several recent releases by northwest resident musicians are featured on this week's Jazz Northwest. Pianist and singer Dawn Clement has recorded duets with five prominent artists on the regional scene in her CD Tandem. We'll hear her in a duo with trombonist Julian Priester. Although the group Scenes sixth CD Destinations was issued last year we're just now featuring it on Jazz Northwest.  Scenes is a cooperative trio with John Stowell, Jeff Johnson and John Bishop.  Also new is clarinetist Edgar Steinitz leading an all-star group in his release Roots Unknown that he describes as "soulful jazz with a Jewish core." From Vancouver BC comes a new CD by Cory Weeds celebrating the music of Earth Wind & Fire.
