Podjazz Radio

Podjazz Radio broadcasts from Vaud in French-speaking western Switzerland and is entirely dedicated to jazz. At the center is the series „100 Ans de Jazz“, which, under the title „Les chroniques du jazz“, tells the stories behind the music and unfolds jazz history decade by decade, starting in the 1930s.

Each episode is assigned to a decade and uses its own album cover, the so-called Pochette, as a guiding motif. The episodes portray musicians such as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Billie Holiday, but also later greats like Miles Davis and John Coltrane. Instead of a mere sequence of tracks, the focus is on the creation and historical context of the recordings.
