RUNDOWN Nugget ice machines, clinking noises, and bizarre celebrity rumors (yes, even LeAnn Rimes' teeth). The warm-up turns nostalgic as the show celebrates musical birthdays for Billy Ray Cyrus, Gene Simmons, and Elvis Costello. And what about the chaos of late August sports: college football's return, the NFL looming, and the Mariners somehow both collapsing and contending at the same time? Hotshot recounts the fantasy football fiasco that ended his playing days back in 2007, while Mitch embraces his role as a “passionate pessimist” when it comes to Seattle baseball. And through it all, one bright spot remains—Brian Woo quietly posting Cy Young–level consistency, even if the voters never notice. Mitch interviews Nancy King, who was just 16 when a family trip to Seattle in August 1964 turned into the story of a lifetime. From checking into the Beatles' hotel, to a chance encounter with a Liverpool journalist, to being ushered into a private room where she spent 30 unforgettable minutes with John, Paul, George, and Ringo — Nancy recounts how one magical evening reshaped her life and inspired decades of storytelling. CBS analyst and Rose Bowl–winning coach Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch to open another season of weekly college football chats, breaking down the new 12-team playoff format, the looming SEC and Big Ten power plays, and the frenzy around Arch Manning's Texas debut in Columbus. He weighs in on Washington's year-two outlook under Jedd Fisch, Heisman dark horses, and makes his first official “Rick's Pick” of 2025 — with Oregon and LSU circled for January glory. Mitch welcomes back Joe Doyle and Brady Farkas for episode 348 of this Mariners No-Table segment, where the trio dissects Seattle's uneven road trip, a roster struggling against lefties, and what Cal Raleigh's historic home run pace means for the franchise. With Padres, Guardians, and Rays looming, the group debates roster moves, Harry Ford's September call-up chances, and whether the Mariners are missing their moment to bury Houston.

When Nikki Giovanni passed away in December at the age of 81, she left a legacy that will continue to be a beacon of light for generations to come. We first had Nikki on With Good Reason more than 20 years ago when I spoke to her about space travel and her poem, Quilting The Black Eyed Pea. And: Rapper Tupac Shakur famously sported a “thug life” tattoo… and so did Nikki Giovanni. I sat down with her in 2014 to talk about the poem she dedicated to Tupac after he was killed in 1996. Later in the show: The dean of southern cookery, Edna Lewis, penned an essay called “What is Southern?” describing how food is intertwined with the seasons and cultures of the south. Back in 2008 we had Nikki Giovanni read a portion of that essay and talk about her friendship with Edna. This interview was conducted by former producer, Nancy King - who passed away in 2010. Plus: In 2020, Virginia Humanities brought Nikki Giovanni in conversation with Tressie McMillan Cottom. It was part of an online event called “Have A Drink With Nikki and Tressie” - moderated by Irène Mathieu. They talked about everything from their early writing days, to finding their voice, and the future of art and literature in the Black community.

"Songs for Jude" will be featured this week on Jazz Northwest. Judy Cites was a concert organizer, promoter and producer, tour manager, ticket maven, active fan and patron of music, dance and theatre. Hers was a familiar face in most of this area’s concert halls, theatres and other performance spaces. She loved jazz, especially standards and we’ll play some of her favorites in tribute - Songs for Jude, played or sung by Dave Peck, Nancy King & Fred Hersch, Chuck Deardorf, The Garfield Jazz Ensemble, Kelley Johnson, Bill Anschell and Don Lanphere. Judy's peaceful passing in her sleep on April 13 at home ended an amazing career - and a 35-year love story shared with Jim Wilke, host and producer of Jazz Northwest.

Para finalizar el programa tendremos lo que va a acontecer en el ciclo de jazz en noviembre del Teatro Central. 30 OCT SALA A FRED HERSCH TRIO FRED HERSCH TRIO Fred Hersch, piano John Hébert, contrabajo Eric mcPherson, batería Para saberlo todo (o casi todo) acerca de Fred Hersch podríamos echar mano de su autobiografía: “Good Things Happen Slowly. A Life In and Out of Jazz” (Crown Archetype, 2017). ...Porque es mucho lo que contiene. La historia de Fred Hersch es el relato del rápido ascenso de un magnífico pianista, desde el originario rol de acompañante de numerosas figuras del jazz estadounidense hasta ser reconocido como uno de los artistas más innovadores de su generación, un maestro de la improvisación y una figura creativa enormemente personal e influyente, líder y mentor de una amplia generación de pianistas y músicos del jazz contemporáneo, considerándosele un “género en sí mismo”. Cada vez que Fred Hersch se sienta al piano compone una experiencia múltiple: una revelación, un descubrimiento, una confesión, una evolución. Como artista en permanente búsqueda, como compositor elocuente o activista extrovertido, como educador de referencia y posesor de uno de los estilos de piano más personal y expresivo en la música improvisada, Hersch es el portador de una vida muy singular que le ha convertido en una de las voces más influyentes y consideradas en el jazz moderno. Con una carrera de más de tres décadas, ha ganado incontables premios, ha sido nominado una docena de veces a los Grammy, y ha obtenido numerosos reconocimientos por parte de las más prestigiosas instituciones y publicaciones del mundo del jazz, entre otras, “Doris Duke Artist 2016”, “pianista del año” por la Jazz Journalist Association en 2016 y 2018 o el Prix Honorem de Jazz concedido en 2017 por la Acádemie Charles Cros a la totalidad de su carrera. Definido por Vanity Fair como “el pianista jazz más arriesgado e innovador de la última década”, como “leyenda viva” por New Yorker o «uno de los músicos más brillantes de su generación» según Downbeat , Hersch destaca por igual, impresiona y ensancha los límites de contextos tan diversos como el piano solo, la música de cámara, o el formato de dúo o trío, como le encontramos en esta ocasión. En concreto, desde su debut como líder en la clásica formación de trío de jazz (piano, contrabajo y batería) con Horizons (1985), el trío formado en su quinta edición (2009 ), por Fred Hersch, el contrabajista John Hébert y el batería Eric McPherson constituye uno de los más originales ejemplos de interplay del jazz contemporáneo, un laboratorio de ideas y experiencias fructífero y un conjunto que ha sido definido por el Wall Street Journal como “uno de los mejores ensembles de nuestros tiempos”. En los últimos años Fred Hersch ha colaborado con grandes músicos entre los que cabe citar a Julian Lage, Esperanza Spalding, Bill Frisell, Chris Potter, Norma Winstone, Nancy King, o Anat Cohen, y entre los artistas más poderosamente influenciados por su música podemos nombrar a algunos como Brad Mehldau, Ethan Iverson o Jason Moran. Con más de 40 álbumes a su nombre como líder o colíder, Hersch exhibe una de las más reseñables discografías en la historia del jazz. Open Book (Palmetto Records, 2017), configura su penúltima entrega y la onceava grabación de piano solo de Fred, disco en el que captura la esencia vital y la intensa belleza que han hecho de Hersch un músico célebre que continúa descubriéndonos nuevas áreas de inspiración y de emoción. Su último álbum en directo es Live in Europe (Palmetto Records; 2018). Además de su música íntima y expresiva, que The New York Times definió como inteligencia emocional, Hersch nunca ha ocultado su realidad privada. Embajador destacado comprometido con la educación social sobre el SIDA, Fred Hersch es el primer músico de jazz que se reconoció públicamente gay y HIV-positivo. En 2008, como consecuencia de tal enfermedad cayó en un coma que duró dos meses. Al recuperar la conciencia, y debido a tan larga inactividad, Fred había perdido la función muscular y no podía tocar el piano, función que recuperó tras una intensa rehabilitación. My Coma Dreams, música compuesta en 2010 para 11 instrumentos, actor-cantante y animación-multimedia como proyecto escénico, está basada en los sueños que Fred conservó tras superar el estado de coma. Además, en 2016 se estrenó el extraordinario documental The Ballad of Fred Hersch, donde se retrata íntimamente la historia personal del pianista, largometraje que fue premiado en el Full Frame Festival en 2016. 31 OCT SALA A JAZZ EN NOVIEMBRE 2019 M.A.P. M.A.P. Marco Mezquida, piano Ernesto Aurignac, saxo alto Ramon Prats, batería MAP es un nombre sin ataduras a lugar o tiempo, una síntesis regeneradora de músicas y estilos populares, académicos y libres. Triángulo que supone la confluencia de la musicalidad de Mezquida, la pasión y energía de Aurignac y la fantasía estructurada de Prats, M.A.P configura uno de los proyectos más aclamados del panorama nacional desde su aparición, con un esperado primer disco respaldado por un poderoso directo, el considerado como el mejor en escena en el año 2015 (fechas en las que nació como proyecto). Poco después el álbum recibiría el premio al mejor disco de jazz en 2016. Se ha dicho de ellos que sus fuentes surgen del free jazz, de la improvisación libre, de la música contemporánea o del jazz standard, a los que suman las músicas y estilos populares con una inmensa libertad interpretativa. Una mezcla en la que suenan referencias tan destacadas como las de Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Keith Jarrett, Monk, Bach, Chopin, Debussy , Gershwin, Ligeti, Morton Feldman, Steve Reich, John Cage, The Beatles,Elvis Presley Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana o Radiohead. “De la chistera de MAP sale de todo: pasajes hipnóticos, descargas torrenciales, un lirismo que a veces roza lo dulzón, un poco de 'groove', rompecabezas rítmicos y una pieza de colores orientales. Y lo tocan todo con una potencia fuera de lo común pero sin que la música parezca una competición”. (Roger Roca, El Periódico de Cataluña) M.A.P., acrónimo de Mezquida (Marco), Aurignac (Ernesto) y Prats (Ramón), suma la experiencia y la energía de tres músicos enormemente inquietos de la geografía española: el piano contemporáneo de Mezquida, reunión de la sensibilidad clásica y la del siglo XX; el rastro creativo, solvente y acaudalado de Aurignac, bien conocido en Barcelona, donde estudió y tomó el pulso del jazz local tras salir de su Málaga natal, y la seguridad e inventiva de Prats, capaces, todos ellos en el escenario de trasladarnos infinitamente a otros paisajes. 01 NOV SALA A JAZZ EN NOVIEMBRE 2019 YOUN SUN NAH YOUN SUN NAH Youn Sun Nah, voz Tomek Miernowski, guitarra, piano, sintetizador y programaciones Rémi Vignolo, batería, bajo eléctrico y acústico y programaciones Youn Sun Nah (Seúl, 1969) nació y se crió en Seúl en una familia volcada en el trabajo de la voz: su padre llegó a ser director del Coro Nacional de Corea y su madre actriz musical y cantante. Graduada en Literatura Francesa por la Universidad de Konkuk en 1992, en 1993 fue invitada por la Orquesta Sinfónica de Corea a cantar los evangelios, participación que supuso para ella el inicio de un nuevo camino, el de la dedicación definitiva a la música. Esta iniciativa le llevará a establecerse en París durante el otoño de 1995 con el expreso fin de estudiar música y más concretamente jazz, propósito que cumplirá en el Instituto Nacional de Música de Beauvais, el Conservatorio de Nadia y Lili Boulanger y la CIM, escuela de jazz y música moderna. Ganadora de la insignia de Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres otorgada por el Ministerio de Cultura Francesa en 2009 y del Premio Sejong de Cultura otorgado por los coreanos, Youn Sun Nah es a día de hoy una celebradísima cantante en el universo del jazz vocal. “La plus française des chanteuses coréennes” (la más francesa de las cantantes coreanas, según le Parisien) o “La chica de la voz de porcelana” a la que “La revista francesa 'Jazz Magazine' le dedicó la portada de su número de marzo (2013) bajo el título de 'Diva sagrada' y a la que las tiendas de música de la capital francesa rinden culto” como contaba Javier Martínez en El Mundo, había dado el giro internacional a su carrera en el año 2010 con el Álbum “Same Girl”. Este álbum supuso un éxito crítico y comercial en Europa, especialmente en Francia (Disco de oro y Académie du Jazz Award), en Alemania (Echo Jazz Award) y en Corea (Korean Music Award), llevándola al escenario de grandes festivales: Montreal, Marciac, Monterrey o Montreux. El álbum Lento, lanzado en 2013, fue de nuevo disco de oro en Francia y Alemania, consolidando el reconocimiento de su figura como el de una nueva diva del jazz. Entre 2009 y 2015, Youn Sun Nah realizó alrededor de medio millar de conciertos alrededor del mundo, con parada en Sochi en 2014 para cantar durante la ceremonia de clausura de los Juegos Olímpicos de Invierno. Regresó en 2017 con el álbum She Moves On, a la conquista de América con su carismática voz sobre un repertorio de canciones estrictamente norteamericano y popular. 2019 ha supuesto un nuevo punto de inflexión en la carrera de la versátil artista: el contrato con la división de Arts Music de Warner Music Group, con sede en EE. UU., y el lanzamiento del álbum Immersion, en el que , como preámbulo de su visita, figura un tema reverencial de la literatura musical española: Asturias de Isaac Albéniz, encarnado en la portentosa voz de Youn Sun Nah. 02 NOV SALA B JAZZ EN NOVIEMBRE 2019 BAPTISTE TROTIGNON & MININO GARAY BAPTISTE TROTIGNON & MININO GARAY “Chimichurri” (condimento sudamericano cuyo ingrediente principal es el chile y consumido en Argentina) Siendo sólo dos y con una instrumentación puramente acústica (piano / percusión), Baptiste Trotignon y Minino Garay comparten como músicos, entre otras muchas cosas, el aprendizaje mutuo sobre sus respectivas experiencias, trasladando a la música su historia y su cultura de una forma poética y festiva. Inclinados hacia la interpretación de bellas melodías y la improvisación sobre ritmos latinoamericanos, ambos se mueven con comodidad en un amplísimo espectro musical que abarca desde las canciones populares hasta el jazz, o entre las composiciones propias y el tango argentino. Una auténtica hermandad musical y personal que ha supuesto el lanzamiento en el año 2016 de su esperado album, “Chimichurri”, especialmente anhelado para aquellos que ya habían disfrutado de su especial complicidad y la poderosa energía que transmiten en el escenario. “El arte del dúo es al mismo tiempo tan sobrio, tan escaso, y tan completo. Sólo dos músicos, conectados el uno con el otro en el escenario, algo que produce calma en mi cuerpo y en mi mente. Es un formato que facilita la comunicación directa entre ambos, una verdadera, simple y auténtica relación con el sonido. Este dueto con Minino es como un punto en el que dos indentides espejo se encuentran: de un lado, mi herencia genética europea, que anhela profundizar en su verdad tribal en la búsqueda, de alguna manera, del “corazón” que se aparte de la razón y sus infamias, yendo más allá del yo en este anhelo por lo desconocido. De otro lado, el músico que tocaba en los bailes de la clase trabajadora en Córdoba, Argentina, y que quiso cruzar el Atlántico hace 20 años para adoptar por completo la sofisticación y los colores de otro tipo de música, otro lenguaje para compartir. La música de Chimichurri es un viaje entre el Norte y el Sur, entre los sonidos de la madera y el cuero, entre la lánguida nostalgia y el loco frenesí, dependiendo de las melodías que amorosamente se unan. El álbum tiene también algo de crudo. No se va por las ramas, no hay artificios. Tan sólo queríamos hacer música “sabrosa”, en constante movimiento, nunca en estado de parada y por supuesto, que funcione en el público como una sacudida!” - Baptiste Trotignon “Para mi, además de la química, lo suficientemente poderosa como para unirnos en el escenario en una banda, este nuevo encuentro artístico con Baptiste Trotignon significa el encuentro entre Europa, el universo afroamericano y la tradición latinoamericana. La chispa entre estos mundos es creadora de una nueva energía llena de ritmos inesperados y melodías sorprendentes, que vienen desde las músicas ancestrales de los griots o jelis africanos e incluso más allá….estoy orgulloso de esta extraordinaria mezcla y muy feliz de presentarla y respaldarla. Chimichurri es un álbum imaginado para animar tu vida. Tómalo tanto como lo necesites.” - Minino Garay. 03 NOV SALA A JAZZ EN NOVIEMBRE 2019 TamTam DrumFest Sevilla 2019 Vuelve el TamTam DrumFest Sevilla que en su edición del 2019 será el domingo 3 de Noviembre de 2019 y como en los últimos seis años se celebrará en el Teatro Central en la Isla de la Cartuja de Sevilla.

This week on "State of Wonder," we remember the life and legacy of the ground-breaking writer Ursula K. Le Guin, and then we talk with Oregon's three Grammy nominees: Portugal. The Man, The Decemberists' side project Offa Rex, and Randy Porter and Nancy King.Remembering Ursula K Le GuinPortland lost a living legend this week. Ursula K. Le Guin passed away on Monday at the age of 88 in her Northwest home. Her writing not only spanned genres, it tore down the barriers that separated them, helping to elevate science fiction and fantasy into "literature" — to say nothing of opening up fiction to women writers and women protagonists. The worlds Le Guin created were places of refuge for those who felt like outsiders and places that challenged readers to think differently and expand their imaginations.In this segment, we listen to: 2:04 - A remembrance from April Baer 5:50 - A conversation with Le Guin at Wordstock in 2015, shortly after the release of a new version of her guide to writing, “Steering the Craft,” in which she spoke about her writing process and what it means to “push back” as a woman writer. 13:57 - A conversation with Le Guin's eldest child, Elisabeth Le Guin, a professor of musicology at UCLA, about the inspiration that is her mother, and what it was like to sit around the dinner table with such a fierce woman. You can listen to the full interview here. 22:38 - A conversation with Molly Gloss, the author of numerous books including "The Hearts of Horses" and "Wild Life," who met Le Guin in 1981 and has been a close friend and writing peer since. You can find the full conversation on Think Out Loud.Portugal. The Man's "Feel It Still" Is Up for Best Pop Group Performance - 29:17“Feel It Still,” the first single from Portugal. The Man’s newest album, “Woodstock,” set new records at the top of multiple charts, becoming the biggest crossover hit since Gotye’s “Somebody that I Used to Know.” Now the song has snagged Portugal. The Man a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. Last summer, the band played an exclusive live set at the OPB studio and sat down to talk about the album. You can watch videos of their opbmusic session here.The Decemberists' Collaboration with Olivia Chaney Gets Nominated for Best Folk Album - 35:57The Decemberists may have finally met their match. The band teamed up with British singer Olivia Chaney under the name Offa Rex — a reference to an Anglo-Saxon king. The album, produced by local whiz Tucker Martine, is called “The Queen of Hearts,” and it's up for the Grammy for Best Folk Album. We invited Decemberists frontman Colin Meloy into the studio, and got Chaney on the line from England, to talk about how this dream team came to be. Randy Porter and Nancy King Contend for Best Jazz Vocal Album with "Porter Plays Porter" - 44:32Last but not least in the trio of Oregon Grammy contenders is the jazz pianist Randy Porter. Porter was first exposed to the music of his namesake, Cole Porter, at age 20, when he worked on a revue of the great American composer’s work. Randy Porter has since become a successful pianist known for his impeccable technique, and now his trio has teamed up with one of the region’s jazz treasures, vocalist Nancy King, on the record “Porter Plays Porter with Nancy King.” It’s up for the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album.
Hello 2018 and welcome back to a new OMN Coffeeshop Conversation, as always from World Cup Coffee and Tea at NW 18th and Glisan. With me today is (and now he will always be known as) Grammy nominated Randy Porter, pianist, composer, teacher and Nancy King wrangler. His album with Nancy King, “Porter Plays Porter” on which they do songs by America’s greatest songwriter, Cole Porter is nominated along with Portland band Portugal the Man. Did he say, “America’s greatest songwriter?” You heard me. Go back and listen again. Randy is a musician’s musician. We hope he wins. We’re homers. Meet Randy Porter.
Well I see you’re paying another visit to World Cup Coffee and Tea at NW 18th and Glisan, at least digitally, for another OMN Coffeeshop Conversation. We’re coming up on our third anniversary at World Cup. That’s a lot of talking friends. We’re going to be expanding our horizons in the months to come. We’ll still be here, but we’re going to be expanding our range of guests. Gotta keep it fresh, you know. Today we’re talking with pianist Dan Gaynor, a clever fellow and a great player. He’s a Jazzman, although he can play any kind of music. You may have seen him with Bobby Torres, Chuck Israels’ Orchestra, Nancy King and many others. He’s one of those fellows I’ve encountered over the years, but have never really sat down and talked with. It’s something I’ve been looking forward to. You’re going to enjoy Dan Gaynor.
Today, a hidden power that is either the cornerstone of our democracy or a trapdoor to anarchy. Should a juror be able to ignore the law? From a Quaker prayer meeting in the streets of London, to riots in the streets of LA, we trace the history of a quiet act of rebellion and struggle with how much power “we the people” should really have.

Strange Pets Occasionally we run into listeners with bizarre pets. This week, Nancy King tells us about her life with an Octopus. That's right. Not as cuddly as a dog, but perhaps as smart. Why would anyone want an Octopus for a pet? You'll find out this week on Animal Radio®. Dogs Good For Our Hearts The American Heart Association (AHA) has declared that pets, especially dogs, are good for a person's heart. Dr. Glenn N. Levine, director of Baylor University's cardiac care unit, said "pet ownership, particularly dog ownership, is probably associated with a decreased risk of heart disease." The AHA writes that owning a dog "may help reduce cardiovascular risk," perhaps due to regular walks and activity. Open Wide Dr. Peter Emily is a human dentist AND a wild animal dentist. One day you'll find him putting a crown in a person's mouth, and the next he might be doing a root canal on a polar bear. What happens when the anesthesia wore off one of his four-legged patients? You'll have to tune in to find out. Going Postal Dogs go postal in Los Angeles more than any other U.S. city. The U.S. Postal Service released its rankings of the best and worst cities for dog attacks on mail carriers. Los Angeles recorded 69 incidents last year. San Antonio and Seattle round out the top three worst cities. Wichita, Kansas is the safety city with just 20 attacks. Almost 6000 postal workers were attacked by dogs last year. ....and of course, the Animal Radio® Dream Team, Dr. Debbie, trainer Alan Kabel and groomer Joey Villani are answering your pet questions toll-free at 1-866-405-8405.
