Modern Jazz Today
Modern Jazz Today – Episode #546 (Week of 7-27-2026)
This week’s program moves through contemporary acoustic jazz, groove-centered ensembles, and rhythmically adventurous modern composition. The first hour balances compact performances with extended trio explorations, while the second hour shifts between intimate group settings, melodic improvisation, and globally influenced textures. Across both hours, the pacing alternates between reflective passages and energetic ensemble interplay.
