1. “What is Jazz?” - Living the Jazz Life: Kenny Barron

In part 1 of an in-depth interview, maestro Kenny Barron talks about the nature of Jazz. Honored by The National Endowment for the Arts as a 2010 Jazz Master, Mr. Barron has worked with such legendary figures as Dizzy Gillespie, Stan Getz, Roy Haynes, Lee Morgan, James Moody, Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Turrentine, Milt Jackson, Buddy Rich, Yusef Lateef, and Terence Blanchard, among others. He has also been the leader on more than forty albums, and counting!

Please, let´s have more JAZZ on this channel. We need to interview all the great Jazz artists while they are with us. These are documentaries to the future generations. I wish we had something like that with Bill Evans and Art Tatum. On classical music, imagine if we had interviews with Debussy, Liszt, Chopin...

Thanks for your comments, Dihelson Mendonca. Sadly this project died, for lack of finance. To me that's tragic because so much history, philosophy, and humanity will be lost.

Just because Cab Calloway and few others were not knowledgeable enough about music to fully appreciate the advent of Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker, we have to accept all kind of crap masquerading as a development of jazz. I personally feel that jazz is fully developed and it's for younger generation to catch up with Art Tatum, Duke Ellington or Sonny Stitt, which sadly they're not doing.
