Lost Coast, with Jenny Scheinman

Episode 30

mardi 29 avril 2025Duration 46:10

Violinist Jenny Scheinman grew up along Northern California’s so-called Lost Coast, and she carries its rustic charm and mystique in her music — even when it assumes a form as elegant as the songs on All Species Parade, her recent double album. She talks with Josh Jackson about the album and other matters before a recent performance with her band at Solar Myth.

Pilgrimage, with Wadada Leo Smith and Vijay Iyer

Episode 29

mardi 15 avril 2025Duration 01:01:31

Few events embody the act of listening and receiving quite like the Big Ears Festival. In this episode, Nate reports back from the fest, and shares an interview with two artists who performed there: trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith and pianist Vijay Iyer, who have a new duo album called Defiant Life.

Behold the Mayo

Episode 20

mardi 10 décembre 2024Duration 50:54

The jazz vocal tradition is always evolving, but rarely does that notion feel truer than in the output of Michael Mayo, who stopped by our studio to talk about his dynamic second album, Fly.

Thanksgiving Mailbag Special

Episode 19

mardi 26 novembre 2024Duration 51:13

As Thanksgiving rolls around, it’s a good time to ask: what are we grateful for? Here at The Late Set, our first answer is you, our listener. So we decided to spend this holiday episode answering your questions.

Adjust Brightness with Bilal

Episode 18

mardi 12 novembre 2024Duration 53:00

“I’m a jazz musician first, I feel,” says Bilal. Maybe this comes as news to the many admirers who know him as an ethereal singer with a shape-shifting R&B profile, or as one of the original catalysts for neo-soul. On a compelling new album, Adjust Brightness — his first studio release in almost a decade — Bilal explores a galactic sweep of sound, making genre distinctions feel all the more irrelevant to any conversation.

Forces of Nature, with Jack DeJohnette

Episode 17

mardi 29 octobre 2024Duration 44:46

“Dreams do come true.” That’s how Greg sums up this episode, as he and Nate talk with master drummer Jack DeJohnette about an incredible recording made in the spring of 1966. Featuring a ferocious quartet co-led by pianist McCoy Tyner and tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, it captures each of those giants at a turning point in his career. Blue Note Records will release this album, Forces of Nature: Live at Slugs’, on Nov. 22.

Nine Lives, with Chris Coles and Sean Jones

Episode 16

mercredi 16 octobre 2024Duration 54:35

WRTI’s Josh Jackson subs in for Greg, talking with Nate about their rich experience at the Pittsburgh International Jazz Festival. Their guests are saxophonist Chris Coles and trumpeter Sean Jones, who had just performed a powerful suite titled Nine Lives. Coles composed the suite in response to a 2015 church shooting in Charleston. This conversation touches on the power of grace, the call to forgiveness — and a quietly thriving jazz scene in Akron, Ohio.Submit your questions and voice memos for our Mailbag episode here: editor@wrti.org

Catch Fire, with Isaiah Collier

Episode 15

mardi 24 septembre 2024Duration 01:02:23

Urgency is a currency for Isaiah Collier, an ambitious young saxophonist from the South Side of Chicago. During a recent visit to Philly, he sat down with us to talk about stirring emotions, channeling energies, and his problem with the term “spiritual jazz.”

Fall Preview, with Nubya Garcia

Episode 14

mardi 27 août 2024Duration 59:33

Feel that rumble underfoot? It might be the stampeding onrush of new music this fall. This episode, we’re throwing a spotlight on the most anticipated albums among them — including 'Odyssey,' by tenor saxophonist Nubya Garcia.

Creative Dancer: esperanza spalding

mardi 16 juillet 2024Duration 01:16:44

For esperanza spalding, the iconic Brazilian troubadour Milton Nascimento exerts a magical influence. So it makes sense that she describes their luminous new album, Milton + esperanza, as the realization of a dream.
