  5. Richard Lewis: The soul of a jazzman

    The performer bounds onto the stage, and even before the applause has died down he's standing in front of the microphone, riffing freely.

  9. Von Freeman, Chicago jazz legend, dead at 88

    Revered around the world but never a major star, worshipped by critics and connoisseurs but perpetually strapped for cash, the towering Chicago tenor saxophonist Von Freeman practically went out of his way to avoid commercial success.

  11. Jason Moran takes on the myths of Fats Waller
