Trombone Treats On Big Band Jazz: August 12 at 7 pm

This week we'll slide into the trombone section on Big Band Jazz. You'll  hear from Tommy Dorsey, the man whose band set new ideas in motion for the instrument, a beauty from Stan Kenton using just trombones and piano, and a few new big bands with trombone high notes. That's this Sunday, August 8th, 7 to 8 pm.
