The Scene - Thursday at 6, Sunday at 5, Friday and Saturday at noon.

MCG Jazz’s Marty Ashby shares sounds and some stories of two legendary Pittsburgh Jazz icons who both have strong ties to Fred Rogers and Mister Rogers Neighborhood: pianist Johnny Costa and guitarist Joe Negri. They also have close ties to MCG Jazz.

Kate Borger presents music made by women in jazz and more for Women’s History Month in March.

Performers like Dakota Staton, Ella Fitzgerald, Deanna Witkowski and composers like Ann Ronell (Willow Weep for Me), Cindy Walker (You Don’t Know Me) and and the lyricist for How High the Moon, Sewickley’s Nancy Hamilton.

Earl Hines, Lois Deppe, Marva Josie, Mary Lou Williams and Madam C. J. Walker

We focus on the major jazz figure of Earl “Fatha” Hines. Called “Fatha” because he was, early in his career, considered the father of what became jazz piano. Plus, a visit with the vocalist who toured with him for 16 years late in his career - Clairton’s Marva Josie

The Scene - Thursday at 6pm, Sunday at 5pm, Friday and Saturday at noon on WZUM.

This week on the MCG Jazz Spotlight Show, hosts Marty Ashby and Renée Govanucci spotlight the music featured in two world premiere ballets commissioned by The Washington Ballet entitled Jazz Icons, for which MCG Jazz served as music director and premiered at the Kennedy Center last week.

This weekend, Pittsburgh gets a visit from trumpeter Thomas Marriott of Seattle - a Maynard Ferguson band alum to town for two Friday shows at Con Alma that feature a tribute to Stanley Turrentine with Erik Lawrence and a sextet with Reggie Watkins, Jared Sims and Howie Alexander - both shows feature Pittsburgh jazz icon, drummer Roger Humphries.

We talk with Thomas about jazz, community, going on the road with Maynard - and how much he loves the Pittsburgh jazz scene.
