Jazz with Wallace Roney

Listen Tuesday, Oct. 23, 2007 at 1:39 p.m. in Arts & Culture

Wallace Roney was already humming jazz tunes as a toddler, and by the time he was in his twenties he was being described as one of the best jazz trumpeters in the world. He was also the only trumpeter to be mentored by the legendary Miles Davis. Roney joins Kojo in studio for an in-studio performance and conversation about his extraordinary career, which began at a local musical institution.
