WBGO is proud to present host Paul Cavalonte and New Standards, bringing you a century of great songs and then some! Paul guides you through the great age of the mid-century American Songbook, its evolution into the singer-songwriter era, and forward into the present day. Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Nat Cole and Frank Sinatra meet Joni Mitchell and Ben Sidran. New Standard-bearers like Jon Batiste, Leslie Odom Jr, and Diana Krall update the Songbook to the 21st Century. New Standards is a rich and elegant soundtrack to your Wednesday morning routine.
