Description
We tend to think of the subjects of Deep Focus as conjurers, as master architects, as grand statesmen, as sonic sculptors, as Renaissance men and women. But what about when they’re the guy down the street? Or the dad of your elementary school friend? How does that change the perspective?
Cornetist Graham Haynes grew up down the block from the magnificent Jaki Byard, one of the all-time great pianist/arranger/educators and one of the most engaging characters ever on the bandstand. Stories? Graham’s got stories!
Join host Mitch Goldman on Deep Focus this Monday (March 3) from 6pm to 9pm NYC-time on WKCR 89.9FM. WKCR HD-1 and wkcr.org
