The autumnal equinox and first day of fall is being celebrated Sunday, and I’ve got autumn tunes running through my head. Though there is music that celebrates the pagan holiday and harvest festival of Mabon, I’ll be exploring tunes that have become jazz standards, in both instrumental and vocal forms today. Some of them are wistful, others are celebratory. They are all evocative of change.
”Black Music Sunday” is a weekly series highlighting all things Black music, with over 225 stories covering performers, genres, history, and more, each featuring its own vibrant soundtrack. I hope you’ll find some familiar tunes and perhaps an introduction to something new.
