Jazz On Radio
Jazz fans starved of their favourite music on the radio at last have an outlet. For the first time, a private radio station is putting the spotlight on jazz. Auckland’s Radio IXI (formerly known as Radio i) hour jazz programme from 8 to midnight on Friday nights. The In The Mood programme covers a wide range of jazz styles. Artists featured so far include George Benson, Charlie Parker, Louis Armstrong, Dave Brubeck, Thelonious Monk, Glenn Miller and Oscar Peterson. The programme is- the brainchild of the station’s news editor, jazz enthusiast Nigel Horrocks, who hosts the programme and picks the music, with occasional assistance from Rip It Up writer Ken Williams. The initial response to the programme has been overwhelmingly enthusiastic and Nigel welcomes comment and suggestions on music for future programmes.
