WRTI and JazzDanmark present DANGEROUS SOUNDS, a podcast series in 8 episodes taking listeners on a historical journey of jazz in Denmark. Starting back in the early 1920s when jazz first arrived on its shores from America, leading up to the time in the ’50s and ’60s when the small state of Denmark became a world center for jazz, the series explores the impact that shaped society and the music we listen to today.
Portrait of the greatest drummer in Danish music: Jørn Elniff. He made history with Bud Powell, Oscar Pettiford, Eric Dolphy and Brew Moore. We tell the story of some of the legendary appearances by such artists as Earl Hines, Jimmy Smith, Clark Terry and many more. This episode contains explicit language.
