    Jazz fans around the world will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Miles Davis. Understandably so. As an artist Miles forged a path in jazz that changed the course of the genre with relentless innovation that traversed Bebop, Cool Jazz, Modal Jazz, Hard Bop and Jazz Fusion. With style and attitude unparalleled, Miles Davis captured the imagination of musicians and fans as one of the most influential jazz musicians ever. To commemorate Miles Davis 100th Birthday KCSM JAZZ 91 will air several special programs. We begin at 6:00am with a Jazz Profiles hosted by Nancy Wilson titled, “Miles Styles”, looking at the stylistic innovations Miles brought to jazz throughout his career. Starting at 9:00am we will present the Peabody Award-winning 8-part series, The Miles Davis Radio Project, produced by Steve Rowland, Quincey Troupe, and Larry Abrams. At 6:00pm Akira Tana will present a special edition of the Jazz Oasis playing the music of Miles Davis exclusively. (more)
