Ask any Hampton Roads fan how to spell jazz and they’ll tell you: J-A-E.
The veteran performer, composer and radio producer/host Jae Sinnett’s name is synonymous with jazz in the region. His “Sinnett in Session” show on NPR affiliate WHRV-FM is still swinging after 35 years; his discography includes 20 recordings that contain compelling renditions of standards as well as new music; and his composition library boasts more than 250 works including those written for ensemble, orchestra and documentary scores.
