Podcasts
WELCOME to Centrum’s podcast channels, enjoy hours of music and creative profiles! Each program offers a separate subscription, so please subscribe to get updates each time we release a new podcast. Available shows include: On A.I.R., Crackin’ the Vault, Communiversity and Jazz Voicings.
Crackin’ the Vault Episodes
Crackin’ the Vault, a new radio show on KPTZ 91.9FM Port Townsend, features musical nuggets from the last five decades of Centrum programming, including Country Blues, Fiddle Tunes, Voice Works, Slide and Steel, and one-time shows from the 90s. More than 55 National Heritage Fellows have participated in Centrum programming, and we’ll be broadcasting some of their finest performances. Hosted by Peter McCracken.
Jazz Voicings Episodes
The 35 musicians who comprise the Jazz Port Townsend faculty each summer are a priceless resource. Artistic Director John Clayton hosts informal 90-minute sessions with some of them, talking about experiences, colleagues, mentors and musical heroes that have shaped them. Expect inspiring stories (and doubtless a few laughs) as they look at life through the open window that is Jazz.
On A.I.R. Episodes
Conversations with Artists-in-Residence
Give yourself an hour-in-residence with creative folks discussing the intersections of process, place, and the personal. Artists, writers, and cultural producers who have engaged with Centrum’s residency program over its 50 years bring you into their studios, homes, and minds to guide us towards the myriad ways our creative practices can affect change through art. Hosted by Michelle Hagewood, Logo art: From the Infinite Lovers series by Leon Finley
