Reggie Watkins Listening and Liner Notes - Bebop and Hard Bop - Carnegie in Carnegie

On the Record: Listening & Liner Notes is a four-part series bringing Carnegie’s own Reggie Watkins into conversation with the music that made jazz what it is. Equal parts listening party and guided discussion, each session explores a different era of jazz history through the recordings themselves.

In the third session of the On the Record series, Be Bop and Hard Bop, Watkins digs into the revolution, the musicians who took jazz apart and rebuilt it faster, harder, and more complex than anyone thought possible.
