JOE ALTERMAN
Atlanta native Joe Alterman expresses a certain upbeat naivete, with a broad smile and bright eyes that make you feel welcome. One would not guess that this is a man hailed by greats; Ramsey Lewis describes his piano playing as ‘a joy to behold’. Les McCann states ‘As a man and musician he is already a giant’.
Journalist Nat Hentoff championed three of Alterman’s albums, as well as his writing (Joe wrote liner notes to three Wynton Marsalis/JALC albums, calling one of Joe’s columns “one of the very best pieces on the essence of jazz, the spirit of jazz, that I’ve ever read, and I’m not exaggerating.”

The Jazz Voyager
Heading south to Magic City on the Atlantic side of South Florida. This Jazz Voyager will be heading to the radio station on Coral Way that has been serving up the sounds of great jazz since 1977. It’s an honor to be able to take a seat in the WDNA Jazz Gallery for a new musical experience. Not unfamiliar with the music of our friends from South America, I am looking forward to the evening.
This week’s travels will have me listening to twenty-three female voices bringing to life the music of Brazil in all its rich multicultural heritage. They are known as the Brazilian Voices and they aspire to incorporate and promote the best of Brazilian culture throughout the world.
Evolving out of a vocal technique workshop organized by Beatriz Malnic and Loren Oliveira in 2001, they have since brought together a cast of devoted women, who volunteer their voices and time.
WDNA Jazz Gallery is located at 2921 Coral Way, Miami, FL 33145. For more information visit https://wdna.org.
