The Jazz Session #397: W.O. Smith Music School

Named after a pioneering African-American musician and educator (that's W.O. Smith playing bass on Coleman Hawkins' original "Body And Soul" recording), Nashville's W.O. Smith Music School "makes affordable, quality music instruction available to children from low-income families. We transform lives through music." In this interview, Executive Director Jonah Rabinowitz talks about the school's origins; the mission it serves and the unique way it affords to offer its services; and the ambitious fundraising and community involvement that led to the school's current state-of-the-art facility.
