This afternoon, on the 4 o'clock hour, we welcome back to the program, composer, saxophonist and founding member of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Roscoe Mitchell. One of the key figures in the development of jazz and improvised music over the last 45 years, Mr. Mitchell is also among the greatest alto saxophonists in the history of the music. Mr. Mitchell will be performing in Sacramento this coming Thursday evening, February 25th, at the 24th Street Theater at the Sierra Two Complex in Curtis Park. Tickets are available at R5 Records, Broadway at 16th St., across from the Tower Theater.

As part of today's broadcast we will devote the entire musical content to the work of this powerful, inspiring and innovative artist. Included will be selections from the classic All the Numbers, Nonaah, and Congliptious, as well as more recent recordings, such as Spectrum (Mutable), and Roscoe Mitchell Transatlantic Art Ensemble (ECM)

Also this afternoon, at 3:25, we are joined by documentary filmmaker, Robert Clift. Mr. Clift most recent work is the extra-ordinary Blacking Up: Hip-hop's Remix of Race & Identity. This powerfully original and thoughtful work explores contemporary issues of cultural appropriation and misappropriation, racial representation and media distortions of same. Interviews included in the work feature two regular guests on this program, Paul Mooney and Amiri Baraka, as well as with Greg Tate, Aesop Rock, M1 (of Dead Prez), John Leland and the great D.J. Kool Herc.
