Guy's featured artist picks

Famous for his collaborations with Miles Davis, Evans brought orchestral colors and textures to jazz, and was a pioneer of the "cool" sound.
 
<em></em>For arranger Gil Evans' centennial, we present a concert from the 2011 Monterey Jazz Festival. Terence Blanchard plays Davis' role with commitment and emotion.
 
NPR Music intern Dominic Martinez listens to the legendary jazz musician's 1970 album and, thanks it its grooves, learns to love jazz fusion.
 
Indiana Avenue, the "main stem" of the city's black community, hosted master musicians nightly.
