A live concert in the WHYY Forum with clarinetist and jazz musician DON BYRON and his "Bug Orchestra." On their new recording "Bug Music" (Elektra Nonesuch) they play the music of The Raymond Scott Quintette, John Kirby & His Orchestra, and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. BYRON has become best known for playing klezmer, but musically he's all over the map: He plays jazz with his Don Byron Quintet, modern classical music with the Semaphore quintet, and he toured Europe with Music for Six Musicians, an Afro-Cuban ensemble. One of BYRON's earlier recordings is "Don Byron Plays the Music of Mickey Katz," (Elektra Nonesuch). (THIS CONCERT CONTINUES INTO THE SECOND HALF OF THE SHOW).12:28:30 FORWARD PROMO (:29)12:29:00 I.D. BREAK (:59)12:
