Jazz pianist Bill Mays will be my guest during the first hour of this week’s “Living Jazz” show, Friday at N

One of our local piano jazz luminaries, Bill has played with everyone from Frank Sinatra and Barbara Streisand to such jazz greats as Sarah Vaughan and Phil Woods. We’ll check out his latest recordings and talk to him about current projects, which include performances of his “Brief History of Jazz Piano,” a selection of tunes featuring him singing, and a two-piano band that performs classical music. “Living Jazz” airs Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. on WJFF, 90.5 F.M., and streams online at http://wjffradio.org.
