The Allen Room ( Jim D'Addio/Rafael Vinoly Architects)A Report from the House of Swing
Last night’s opening of the Frederick P. Rose Jazz Hall at Jazz at Lincoln Center received no shortage of advanced media coverage, but the question remains: how does it sound? Today, Rolling Stone contributing editor Anthony DeCurtis joins us with his thoughts on the hall’s opening night and what the future holds in store. Also: Profiling great artists teaches us about greatness, and Leonard Bernstein is no exception. WNYC recently began broadcasting Leonard Bernstein: An American Life, an 11-part radio documentary, hosted by Susan Sarandon, about Bernstein’s iconic life and career. Today, daughter Jamie Bernstein Thomas joins us to give us an even deeper look into the life of her father, who seems to be more popular than ever these days.
