Brass, Reeds, and Percussion: February 10, 2024 (Mardi Gras)

To celebrate Mardi Gras and Black History Month, this edition of Brass, Reeds, and Percussion features remastered Dixieland recordings from the 1920s and 1930s. Robert Parker, an Australian sound engineer, has processed and remastered a number of old 78-rpm recordings so that they almost sound like modern recordings. Regardless, the fidelity is tremendously improved. We will have a number of selections from his compact disc entitled \“New Orleans: Jazz Classics in Digital Stereo.\” Today, you will hear at least two original recordings by the 1930s reincarnation of the New Orleans Rhythm Kings, one of the few jazz bands known by their initials: N.O.R.K. The other is the Original Dixieland Jazz Band: O.D.J.B.
