Don Byron
The jazz clarinetist Don Byron has an extraordinary musical range. He’s put out albums of modern jazz, 1930’s swing, rap, and Jewish dance music. His new album, Do The Boomerang, is good old fashion rockin’ blues. Byron tells Kurt about his always-changing music, and explains how he chose the clarinet in the first place.
