About the Program
Welcome to The Jazz Connection. I'm Maryann Sullivan and it is my distinct pleasure to connect with you every Saturday night from 912 for three hours of my favorite music...Jazz! The Jazz Connection showcases the wide range of the genre, covering everything from jazz's roots in the blues through its Latin influences. It's an eclectic journey through the world of jazz.
