Not only am I a podcast author, I’m a podcast lover. And recently I’ve come across some podcasts that I’m really enjoying.
If you’re a jazz lover, then you’ll love both NPR: Jazz Profiles and The Traneumentary. NPR’s Jazz Profiles covers the lives and music of artists like Miles Davis and Ella Fitzgerald. It’s fantastic! The Traneumentary celebrates the artistry and recording of John Coltrane. It’s a deep look into the life and music of this amazing jazz pioneer.
The final podcast is brought to you by Pandora. One of their most recent episodes details Hip Hop Rhyme Schemes. If you’re not familiar with Pandora and the Music Genome Project, check it out right away. You’ll love it!
