With 100 years of recorded jazz at our fingertips, it can be difficult for working musicians to be heard. Jazz at 100 Today! celebrates recent music from the living treasures who keep pushing boundaries while standing on the shoulders of giants.

In 100 one-hour programs, the series Jazz at 100 told the story of recorded jazz. It established the foundations upon which is built the broadly diverse music of today. Jazz at 100 today is the successor series which aims to give voice to the current jazz scene and appreciates its countless creators.
