Earl’s Mirror

This show opens with a Trane tribute before we talk to Earl MacDonald, director of jazz studies at University of Connecticut. Earl's new CD, Mirror of the Mind creatively draws upon outside influences and incorporates cello into his ensemble. The CD is to be released October 15. Find out more at Earl's website, www.earlmacdonald.com. At the conclusion of the interview we hear from Kris Allen, a frequent collaborator with MacDonald and finally Gary Burton with his new quartet.
