TWENTY YEARS OF JAZZ FORMAT

 

In 2002, KRTU adopted its primary music format - Jazz.

In 2002, KRTU adopted its primary music format - Jazz. At the time of the decision, 对未来的格式作了大量的考虑, with Classical music being a part of the conversation. With the help of committed faculty members, 愿意支持Jazz和KRTU的员工和社区代表, the decision was made on October 7, 2002 to adopt a primarily all-jazz format. 从此,KRTU被公认为爵士乐广播界的一流文化力量. 大约有35个专业节目突出了爵士乐的广泛范围, from classic jazz artists and recordings to premier, modern-day pioneers and regional artists. 全国仅有60家联邦通信委员会许可的爵士乐电台之一(德克萨斯州三家之一), KRTU在强调其历史意义的同时,保持爵士乐在现代背景下的相关性, contemporary value, and diversity.

KRTU拥有全国最大的爵士乐录音室内收藏之一. 黑胶唱片,在KRTU使用的原始格式,继续每天播放. In addition to a robust collection of vinyl and CDs, the station maintains a digital library of over 100,000 songs.

 

TEN YEARS OF JAZZ FORMAT

In 2012, KRTU庆祝爵士乐形式十周年,在全市范围内推广当地爵士乐, community engagement, and the arts. “爵士年”庆祝活动是韩国教师工会与韩国教师工会共同努力的结果, The City of San Antonio, and more than 20 non-profit organizations. 该倡议是由副总经理当时提出的, (市长)罗恩·尼伦伯格,包括圣安东尼奥爵士套房的委托, composed by former KRTU Music Director, Dr. Aaron Prado. 这首组曲是用爵士乐的语言讲述圣安东尼奥的历史, celebrating the people, the culture, and the history of jazz in our beloved city. 

为期一年的系列音乐会最终在劳瑞礼堂举行的免费音乐会中达到高潮,其中包括由当地爵士音乐家组成的全明星阵容的圣安东尼奥爵士组曲.

 

TWENTY YEARS OF JAZZ FORMAT

October 7, 2022 marks 20 years of the jazz format. This is an important celebration for KRTU, the City of San Antonio and the local, regional and international jazz community. Over the last two decades, KRTU以丰富的专业节目将圣安东尼奥的爵士乐提升到新的观众面前. 现在,在KRTU有35个以上的爵士乐专业节目,由当地的专职主持人主持. Programs like the South Texas Jazz Project, Jazz Break at Noon, 反复出现的, Woman in Jazz, 和墨西哥爵士乐以各种风格和形式庆祝爵士乐,并继续该站的爵士教育使命.

Community concerts and educational initiatives, originally forged during the Year of Jazz, 对当地的爵士乐社区产生了持久而积极的影响吗. 周日爵士在维特娱乐观众超过15年! 今天, 日本茶园的爵士乐延续了传统,与当地音乐家一起举办季节性音乐会. For the greater jazz music industry, KRTU是德克萨斯州的一家广播电台,播放经典和新爵士唱片,延续了地面广播作为爵士推广灯塔的重要作用. 整个美国只有60家爵士广播电台,德克萨斯州只有3家, KRTU仍然致力于为美国的原创艺术形式-爵士乐提供节目.
