Afterbeat #15 (Part 1) - Dr. Thom Mason on jazz education (and more)

Sax player, arranger, composer and educator Dr. Thom Mason joins me for a two-part episode on "Jazz Ed." Since most of the previous shows have touched on this subject, I wanted to get a full-time educator in to explore jazz ed in depth, and there's no one that I know better equipped.  Thom founded the USC Thornton jazz department, and was its first and long-serving chair.  He's thought about these issues; he even brought in notes when we recorded!  In addition, he played with Buddy Holly (and didn't get on the plane, obviously).  That's a story worth hearing.

This is a two-part episode, so get comfortable and enjoy.
