The
search for the intersection of the world's greatest musical art forms,
classical and jazz, has been attempted many times by many great musicians and
composers from Stravinsky to Gershwin, Bernstein to Cage and Goodman to Yo-Yo
Ma. Finally, this melding of both genres has been accomplished with the
star-studded concert from award-winning producer Larry Rosen, Jazz and the
Philharmonic. The show was shot as part of the Jazz Roots concert series in
Miami January 2013 and will air as a national, primetime broadcast on PBS on
February 28, 2014. Jazz and the Philharmonic features world-class, award
winning stars in both jazz and classical music genres, exploring the music of
composers Bach, Strauss, Copeland, Rodrigo, Gershwin, Mancini, Grusin, Corea
and McFerrin.
