Equal parts listening party and guided discussion, each session explores a different era of jazz history through the recordings themselves. Celebrate 250 years of American Independence with Jazz

Reggie Watkins is a trombonist and composer known for his powerful tone, expressive phrasing, and deep roots in the jazz tradition. He has toured and recorded with icons including Maynard Ferguson and Orrin Evans’ Captain Black Big Band, and leads his own Pittsburgh-based quartet through a body of work that honors the heroes and history that shaped him. Watkins has spent decades not just playing the music but sharing it, and On the Record is a natural extension of that commitment.

In this first session, Blues and Early Jazz, Watkins traces the roots of the music, from the blues traditions that gave jazz its soul to the earliest recordings that put it on the map. Taking place in the intimate setting of the Carnegie Carnegie Studio, this is a chance to get up close with the music and the conversation. Come ready to listen, ask questions, and hear where it all began.

Registration is appreciated but not required. Walk-ins welcome!
