Jazz Century

on BBC Radio 3

Russell Davies presents a 52-part history of jazz, from its earliest stirrings to the end of the millennium. 11: The Last Time. When Louis Armstrong
disbanded his Hot Seven in 1927, he left behind the predominantly New Orleans ambience that had helped to both create and to limit his style. His second group, Hot Five, comprised compatible co-instrumentalists from further afield, including the brilliant pianist Earl Hines.
