A jazz artist in a rural locale

Pianist-composer Ann Tappan on her creative life outside Bozeman, Montana

I interviewed Ann Tappan, a 2024 JJA Jazz Hero, for The Buzz: The Podcast of the Jazz Journalists Association.

I’ll cross-post episodes of The Buzz here for greater visibility of this JJA effort, now dropping monthly. The latest episode features Darius and Catherine Brubeck — yes, son and daughter-in-law of pianist-composer Dave Brubeck — on their 25 year sojourn in South Africa, establishing a jazz education program and spreading the wisdom of music as best they could.

Jazz goes everywhere. Comments welcome.
