The Jazzensor is a podcast directed and presented by Lester Cuba, which you can hear every day at 18: 00, Spanish time, which explores music as culture, memory and story. Tour jazz, soul, bossa nova, Brazilian music, Latin music and other related sounds through artists, records and stories, always under the motto
«Stories to listen to. Music to discover.»
The project is organized in three different areas:
- The Jazzensor (main programme): monographic episodes dedicated to specific artists, disks or musical movements.
- Actualijazz: a weekly selection of the highlights of jazz, soul and R & B at the international level.
