Destination Out: August 20, 2017

This week a large focus of the program centers around a newly discovered recording of Theloniuos Monk's film score for the film  "Les Liaisons Dangereuses"  (1960). Also included in the program is music created for the film by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, along with film music from the era by Duke Ellington and Miles Davis. During the first hour of the program we played a newly released track on solo harp from Alice Coltrane recorded in concert in Poland in 1987.

 

Mike Johnston is the host of 'Destination Out,' which airs each Sunday evening at 11pm. Mike also teaches music history courses at Delta College and Mid Michigan Community College.
