Joseph Celli speaks with the legendary National Endowment for the Arts jazz master, pianist, and vocalist Amina Claudine Myers.

Join me & drummer/composer Ches Smith discussing his work & new release Clone Row.

"One of the wiliest drummers on the experimental scene" (NY Times)

Joseph Celli interviews Wu Man, the world's premier pipa virtuoso, prior to her performance with the New Haven Symphony. Wu Man discusses the 2,000 year old pipa tradition, the new pipa concerto (Ears of the Book) composed for her by Pulitzer prize winning composer Du Yun. We then relish in her recording of Ambush From All Sides — a demanding piece considered one of the masterpieces of Chinese classical music.

Please join me for an interview & music with pianist, composer & improvisor Sylvie Courvoisier as she discusses her home in Switzerland, her various bands, her move to Brooklyn, & her new duo release with Mary Halvorson.

From NPR, Kevin Whitehead — “Some pianists approach the instrument like it’s a cathedral. Sylvie Courvoisier treats it like a playground."
