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.
We dig deeper into the life of John Tchicai and tell the story about his time in New York (the first phone call being from John Coltrane). This
episode also tells the story of the collaboration between Palle Mikkelborg and Miles Davis in 1985 (the second phone call being Miles calling Mikkelborg to tell him about the plans to make an album).
