I'm always on the prowl for new ways to connect and provide you with jazz-related links that I've either come across or have been made hip to recently …

• A Jazz Piano Christmas (via National Public Radio)
• The 2014 NPR Music Jazz Critics Poll. Tell us what you think and channel your inner critic in the comments below!
• The Jazz Grammy Nominations (via Elements of Jazz, because she does it so well…)
• NY Is Music, a new organization to support recently introduced NY legislation to set up a  tax credit for music production. 

I'm always finding new jazz links to put out there for you. They won't always get into these posts, but I'll usually share them on the Jazz@Rochester Twitter or the Facebook pages. If you have a jazz link to share here with the Rochester jazz community and beyond, send us an email by clicking on the Contact Us button below the banner
