Jack Kleinsinger's Highlights in Jazz March 7, 2007

This series features a variety of special guest performers. Over the last forty years, Jay Leonhart has played the bass for most of the legendary singers and jazz musicians of our time. This songwriter combines his bass violin virtuosity and jazz expertise with songs that are hip, humorous and moving commentaries on our lives and times. Larry Fuller has established himself as a world-class jazz pianist firmly rooted in the hard swinging traditions of mainstream jazz. Bucky Pizzarelli has been a fixture in jazz and the studios since the early '50s. The self-taught Pizzarelli, who has shared the stage with the likes of Frank Sinatra and Ray Charles, has long been one of the masters of the seven-string guitar.
