Dr. Billy Taylor

In celebration of Juneteenth, WBGO presents a playlist of jazz tracks that reflect this day of freedom and liberation.

WBGO’s Lezlie Harrison talks with Michael O. Mitchell, co-creator of ‘What’s Going On?’, a theatrical concert at 92NY exploring the contributions of Black songwriters to the American Songbook canon.

We're celebrating the legacy of Dr. Billy Taylor — with a look at his multifaceted career, his musical philosophy, and the impact he left.
