Today we'll preview upcoming Portland-area jazz events
for January and February.
From January 13 through February 5,
the NW Film Center presents their "Reel Music"
fim series, happily re-set in January.
This year's lineup is particularly attractive,
including "The Jazz Loft" recently shown and sposored by KBOO.

January 14 brings pianist Mike Wofford and flutist Holly Hofmann to town.

Composer, bandleader, and pianist Ez Weiss joins us today
to musically preview his Monday Night Big Band's performance therein.
