This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "Tim Larkin trumpet interview" About Tim Larkin: Tim Larkin is a composer, trumpet player, and sound designer whose work spans decades across the gaming, jazz, and film industries. His credits include Portal, Dota 2, Team Fortress 2, and HBO's The Rat Pack, with past live performances alongside legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Sheila E., and Huey Lewis. Tim won an Academy Award creating sound design for Best Animated Short at the 75th Academy Awards for his work on The ChubbChubbs! Setting Standards is his long-awaited debut jazz album, and was released on August 1, 2025 on all major platforms. The album is a curated collection of reimagined classics and one original composition that captures the emotional breadth, musical depth, and cinematic storytelling that have defined Larkin's career across jazz, film, and video games. Setting Standards includes interpretations of songs by Bobby Caldwell, David Foster, Jimmy Webb, and more anchored by his own original composition, “Gumshoes.” “This album isn't about chasing trends,” says Larkin. “It's about honoring the songs that stuck with me and reimagining them in a way that feels honest keeping the soul intact but letting them breathe in a new space.” Setting Standards blends cinematic jazz, soulful arrangements, and live instrumentation into a cohesive listening experience that's both nostalgic and forward thinking. With contributions from longtime collaborators including John Paris (Earth, Wind & Fire) and renowned arrangers Maurizio Metalli, Lennie Moore and Joris Hoogsteder, the album is a modern take on the classic jazz experience.

Roger Armstrong co-founded the legendary Rock On record shop and was running the Chiswick label long before the punk rock explosion of independents, a believer that you could license rare R&B, soul and rockabilly classics while cutting new records with rising stars (Shane MacGowan, Kirsty MacColl and Joe Strummer among them). He then co-founded Ace Records and talks to us here about the thrill of trawling through American label vaults, locating vintage tracks and finding them a whole new audience. Along with … … seeing Ella Fitzgerald and the Beatles in Belfast in the early ‘60s ... inventing a new Irish rock circuit and turning showbands into soul bands … how American Graffiti, Gaz's Rockin' Blues and the mod revival all chimed with Ace Records' re-issues … promoting ‘Tin' Lizzy (“that's what it sounded like on the phone”) and being immortalised in one of their lyrics (“I get my records at the Rock On stall”) … Joe Strummer in the 101-ers – “sensational, full-tilt, as if playing a stadium” … releasing Dylan's Theme-Time Radio Hour box-sets and the size of his record collection … finding a Little Richard demo and making an Elvis Presley speech album a money-spinner … being a pioneer tape rat and crate-digger and Ace Records quality control – “Stack ‘em low, sell ‘em high!” … “think of the strapline, then choose the tracks”: making compilations with Jon Savage, Bob Stanley, Bobby Gillespie and Paul Weller … plus reflections on John Martyn, Carol Grimes, Brinsley Schwarz, Rocky Sharpe, Irma Thomas, Arthur Alexander and the Count Bishops (“like the Stones at 78”).

Juliet Ewing is rapidly becoming known as an exciting, masterful interpreter of the Great American Songbook. Equally at home in jazz clubs and on concert stages, she is following in the footsteps of Ella Fitzgerald and Peggy Lee in that she can swing when she so desires, yet always stays connected to the rich and musically diverse songbook singing tradition that these great ladies of song exemplified. Fun yet elegant, Juliet enjoys singing the full spectrum of popular song, from the musical chestnuts of George Gershwin and Cole Porter to the contemporary stylings of Sting, Laufey, and Sade. Perhaps the word that best exemplifies Juliet's artistry is “timeless.” Juliet regularly performs as a soloist or with her trio “The Juliet Set” in and around NYC in jazz clubs and private events. marked by a golden voice that resonates with warmth and clarity, captivating audiences with every note. On September 12, she released her album Simply 'S Wonderful-The Magic of Gershwin.
"I've been an ardent fan of the big bands all my life. As a child growing up in New Jersey, I set my radio dial to WNEW, where "Make Believe Ballroom" featured a constant stream of recordings by big bands and their vocalists. Swing music went into hibernation for a while, as vocalists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Rosemary Clooney, and Perry Como stole the spotlight away. Determined to keep the old sound alive, I accumulated a collection of over 9,000 recordings. With such a rich resource at my fingertips, it was a natural next step to inaugurate a weekly radio program, which went on the air in 1983 and is now carried by over 40 National Public Radio stations."
Après avoir longtemps prêté sa voix singulière, tour à tour puissante et fragile, à d'autres projets, la chanteuse française d'ascendance camerounaise s'impose avec Méduse, son premier projet personnel (mais pas solitaire), comme une créatrice souveraine. Depuis une quinzaine d'années à Lyon, où elle a grandi, et ailleurs sur scène, comme sur disque, le public a pris coutume d'être subjugué par cette chanteuse-musicienne qui sublime projets et collaborations avec la même radieuse et imperturbable intensité. Après avoir notamment été la voix de The Amazing Keystone Big Band et s'être promenée comme en son jardin dans le répertoire Ella Fitzgerald ou de Nina Simone, celle qui fait partie des chanteuses de jazz incontournables de la scène française actuelle nous revient en créatrice souveraine avec son premier projet. Méduse est le fruit d'un long processus de recherche et de rencontres, avec soi-même, et avec d'autres artistes à la composition (Yael Naïm, Sarah Mikovski), à la réalisation (LaBlue, Janoya) et à l'interprétation : Giani Caserotto (guitare), Juliette Serrad (violoncelle), Robinson Khoury (trombone). La voix profonde et texturée de Célia Kameni, investit un monde sonore dont elle a défini les contours mobiles en défiant toute classification. Le résultat : quatre chansons aux fortes personnalités, qui oscillent entre le folk, la soul contemporaine, la chanson et le jazz, où la vulnérabilité et l'authenticité règne en maîtres. Alors qu'elle vient d'être couronnée par les Victoire du Jazz 2025, dans la catégorie « artiste vocale », Celia Kameni nous a donné rdv au Chalet, le bar-restaurant de l'association IDL, qui défend notamment le droit de l'alimentation.

Send us a textLindsey Wall has particularly connected with the dead nettle. Having worked with flowers since she was in high school, she saw a dead nettle growing out of the concrete during a winter walk in Nashville.Fascinated by its fierce and strong yet soft qualities, along with realizing that the name “dead nettle” sounds almost like “death metal,” Wall has since embraced Dead Nettle as her stage name.Paul Dyer has lived in and around the Front Range for 35 years, first falling in love with Colorado on a family vacation at 14 years old. Staying in a motel next to a creek, he loved the sound of the flowing water, and as with many other residents, the mountains and diverse landscape were a major drawing point.Music has been a long-time hobby for Paul. He grew up surrounded by music, his dad singing and playing music from artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Nat King Cole. While jazz ultimately didn't connect with Paul as a performer, it sparked his interest in music.This episode also features special guest Carol Dyer!

In 1956, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong released “Ella and Louis” — the first of three classic albums the two jazz greats would record together. Now, a Canadian production is paying tribute to these records and these artists with a new stage show called “Ella and Louis,” which is running at this season's Shaw Festival. The award-winning Toronto singer and actor Alana Bridgewater co-created the show and also plays Fitzgerald. She joins guest host Gill Deacon to talk about the legacy of these albums and what it's like to step into the shoes of a music legend.

Será el tercer premio póstumo tras los de Douglas Fairbanks en 1940 y Edward G. Robinson en 1973.

Song: Don't Give Up Music by: Becky Reardon Notes: Thinking about tough times, Becky Reardon says, "The worst thing we can do is go silent." Here's a song to help with that -- a song about both grit and kindness; how a little flex can be the strongest response. She says, “Of all times when we need to get together and sing… this is the time to keep it going.” We talk about her love of the high desert, trees, community... how church and family singing embedded love of harmonies. How Naomi Shihab Nye reminded her, "When times are hard, do something satisfying." Plus a sticky cocklebur song! It's a good conversation to help return you to yourself, your power to bring more decency and compassion into the world. Songwriter Info: Becky Reardon's voice is familiar to the millions of people who hear her sing on the Charlie Brown/Peanuts TV specials. She is a composer whose songs and rounds are widely sung by community and university choirs, song circles, and singing classes. Sometimes jazzy and fun-loving, sometimes trance-inducing and deeply spiritual, her music always conveys her passion for the natural world and the cycles of life. Sharing Info: The song is free to share in oral tradition groups, but please contact Becky for recording and/or performing permission.

Jahrgang 1924, Jazzmusiker & Profigitarrist (verstorben am 28. Januar 2018) Mit 13 entdeckt der Berliner Heinz Jakob "Coco" Schumann den Jazz für sich, kurz darauf schwappt die Swingwelle ins Land, ausgerechnet als der Krieg schon in vollem Gange und Swing Tanzen streng verboten war. Mit 16 spielt er das erstmal öffentlich. Ein riskantes Unterfangen. Er spielt nachts heimlich in den Clubs mit Bully Buhlan und Helmut Zacharias um die Wette. 1943 wird er denunziert und kommt in Gefangenschaft. Deportation nach Theresienstadt, dann nach Auschwitz und nach Dachau. Coco Schumann musiziert selbst in den Lagern, wird so zum "Ghetto-Swinger" und rettet sich so das Leben. 1945 kehrt er nach Berlin zurück, heiratet und bespielt mit seiner Jazzgitarre und neuer Band sämtliche Tanzschuppen rund um den Kurfürstendamm. Trotzdem wandert er 4 Jahre nach Ausstralien aus. Endgültig zurück im Wirtschaftswunder Berlin, jammt er mit Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie und Louis Armstrong. Kurz - er wurde der deutsche Grandmaster of Swing. 40 Jahre hat Coco Schumann über seine Erlebnisse während des Nationalsozialmus geschwiegen. In seinen Memoiren "Der Ghetto Swinger - erzählt der 80jährige Jazzmusiker, wie er Auschwitz und seine Peiniger überlebte und gab uns in der Hörbar ein paar Einblicke in sein spannendes Leben. Coco Schumann wurde 93 Jahre alt.

Legendary entertainer, Pat Boone continues sharing his 70-year journey in music, television, and movies on this second half of our interview. Pat Boone was ninety years old when the interview was conducted over a Zoom call. Host, Byron Tyler normally records up to thirty minutes in order to produce the Mid-South View Point show. However, on the afternoon that Byron and Pat did the interview, Pat from his home in Beverly Hills, California, the conversation quickly turned into two hours. Pat Boone is the #10 all-time top recording artist. Pat was married to Shirley (Foley) Boone (daughter of Country star ‘Red' Foley) for over 65 years before her passing. Pat Boone made his first appearance nationally on “The Ted Mack Amateur Hour” (in which he became the original American Idol, selected week after week by the viewers), and later appeared on “The Arthur Godfrey Show.” Those appearances would introduce his talent to record producer Randy Wood of Dot Records who thought Pat Boone could sing rock ‘n roll. He became the youngest person in history to have his own weekly musical variety show (ABC), at times the number one show in television featuring many first time-on-TV artists like Sammy Davis, Ella Fitzgerald and Nat ‘King' Cole. Elvis Presley once opened for Pat Boone at a big disc jockey “sock hop” in Cleveland in 1956. “I had to follow him,” recollects Pat. “Thank God I had 3 million-selling hit records already and I was the star that night. But I never wanted to follow Elvis again!” Pat Boone is also a member of the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. This is the second half of a two-part interview with Pat Boone.

Wie viele Geburten sie begleitet hat, kann Natalia Conde nicht zählen. Und in wie vielen Stücken sie mitgewirkt hat, wohl auch nicht. Ärztin und Schauspielerin: Conde ist beides – und findet verblüffende Überschneidungen zwischen diesen Berufen. Von der Vorstellung direkt in die Nachtschicht: Es gab eine Zeit in Natalia Condes Leben, da übte sie ihre beiden Berufe gleichzeitig aus. Ganz so extrem ist es heute nicht mehr. Dafür singt sie aber einmal in der Woche im Zürcher Bach Chor. Und leitet mit ihrem Mann Theaterproben an einem Zürcher Gymnasium. Condes Laufbahn ist im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes aussergewöhnlich. Bis 32 sei sie geradlinig verlaufen, sagt sie selbst: Ein Theaterkurs an der Kanti, Matura, direkt an die Schauspielschule. Doch da war noch dieser andere Wunsch, jener der Medizin. Und so beschloss sie mehrere Jahre später – schwanger mit ihrem dritten Kind – ihm nachzugehen. Im Gespräch mit Melanie Pfändler erzählt sie, wie es dazu kam und woher sie die Energie für all diese Aufgaben nimmt. Und von ihrer Kindheit als Tochter einer Schweizer Journalistin und eines spanischen Musikers, die vor allem eines wollten: dass ihre Tochter ihr Geld mit dem verdient, was sie glücklich macht.

Listen to the second episode in our three-part series exploring the music of Reunald Jones, a legendary Indiana trumpet player with deep connections to the Avenue scene. During his remarkable career, Jones performed with the biggest stars in American music, including Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins, Dinah Washington, Quincy Jones, and Nat King Cole. But he's best known for his work with Count Basie. Jones was a member of the Count Basie band from 1952, to 1957. During that time, he led the band's trumpet section, and he became known for playing the trumpet with one hand. Jones was a member of Basie's orchestra during a high point with the band. During the years Jones played with Basie, the band played their first dates in Europe and recorded classic albums like “Live at Newport”, “April in Paris”, and “Basie in London”. Listen to this program for music featuring Reunald Jones' recordings with Count Basie.
Eddie Perfect has been entertaining us for years. A star of stage and screen, he's a writer of Broadway musicals, played Mick Holland on Offspring, and once composed a musical about Shane Warne. Eddie's currently starring in the titular role for another musical he wrote – Beetlejuice - and he nails it. But for someone with such a varied life in song, I was curious about the inspirations he drew from. Strap in for his source material, and some truly beautiful nerding out on music.The Beach Boys - 'I Get Around'Lauryn Hill - 'Ex-Factor'Rage Against The Machine - 'Killing In The Name'Ella Fitzgerald - 'Fascinating Rhythm'Joni Mitchell - 'Both Sides, Now'

Listen to the first episode in our three-part series exploring the music of Reunald Jones, an important jazz trumpet player with deep connections to the Avenue neighborhood. During his legendary career, Jones performed with the biggest stars in American music, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins, Dinah Washington, Quincy Jones, Nat King Cole and many others. Jones was born in Indianapolis in 1922. Music was part of his family legacy, his father John Wesley Jones was a musician, and his cousin Roy Eldridge, was a famous jazz trumpet star. Jones' family had strong ties to the Avenue neighborhood. During the early 1900s, his father was a choral director for the Bethe A.M.E. church and a bandleader, for the Senate Avenue YMCA. In the 1930s, his sister, Louise Fields, was an editor for the Indianapolis Recorder. After spending the first decade of his life in Indianapolis, Jones moved with his family to Muncie, Indiana. By age 15, Jones was playing trumpet in a local Muncie band that included Doc Wheeler on trombone. Wheeler became a star on the Avenue scene during the 1930s. In the early 1940s, Jones and Wheeler reunited for a series of recordings with Bluebird Records. By age 20, Jones left Muncie to pursue a life in music. He performed with a variety of regional territory bands, including Speed Webb's Hoosier Melody Lads, where he had the chance to play with his cousin Roy Eldridge.

When the jazz singer Cécile McLorin Salvant was profiled in The New Yorker, Wynton Marsalis described her as the kind of talent who comes along only “once in a generation or two.” Salvant's work is rooted in jazz—in the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan and Abbey Lincoln—and she has won three Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album. But her interests and her repertoire reach across eras and continents. She studied Baroque music and jazz at conservatory, and performs songs in French, Occitan, and Haitian Kreyòl. “I think I have the spirit of a kind of a radio d.j. slash curator,” she tells David Remnick. “It's almost like making a mixtape for someone and only putting deep cuts.” And even when singing the standards, she aims “to find the gems that haven't been sung and sung and sung over and over again.” During a summer tour, she visited the studio at WNYC to perform “Don't Rain on My Parade,” made famous by Barbra Streisand; “Can She Excuse My Wrongs,” by John Dowland, the English composer of the Elizabethan era; and “Moon Song,” an original from Salvant's album “Ghost Song.”This segment originally aired on May 31, 2024.
