As we savor the afterglow of the Pittsburgh International Jazz Festival with a backstage visit with vocalist / pianist Kandace Springs, we also look forward to to shows from vocalist Kurt Elling with the Pittsburgh Jazz Orchestra at MCG Jazz and saxophonist Kenny Garrett for Kente Arts at the New Hazlett on Saturday night.
We talk with Kenny Garrett about “Sounds from the Ancestors,” and about Jazz in Detroit, too.
Also, sounds from the latest single from guitarist John Shannon - who’s organ trio was ALSO at the Jazz Festival.
The Scene - an hourlong radio show - Thursday night at 6, Friday and Saturday at noon, Sunday at 5 on WZUM
