Table 19: Recent Episodes
Miriam Zolin
Hello! My name is Miriam Zolin and I will be your host as we listen to new releases, Australian classics and musician interviews - all with a focus on Australian jazz and improvised music.
The term 'jazz' is as broad as the genre, and as music genres go, this is one of the broadest. The range of music we present here is as varied as the musicians who make it. Keep your ears open, and listen to everything. You don't have to like all of it but some of it will change your day. Or maybe even your life.
