Jazz has been a musical force for over one hundred years, but this does not mean that all that is to be said has been said. Jazz is an ever-evolving musical tapestry in which a multitude of musical influences are incorporated, reconciled, and improvised upon. In this hour, we will explore Jazz Plus, i.e., Jazz with a little something extra that offers a different listening experience while maintaining the foundation and history of this unique art form.
