We're still recovering from Monday 30 April when, from six in the evening to midnight Brisbane time, we were broadcasting a special show as a registered event of the UNESCO International Jazz Day 2018 with live music from our studios from some of Brisbane's favorite jazz musicians and singers. Jazz and Swing & Big Band announcers - James Dalgleish, John Diegan, Rob Morris, Terry Piper, Mike Ravell, Bruce Tyrrell & John Van - also presented special segments throughout the evening's broadcast. Some 30 or so people donated their time, talents & expertise to support the broadcast which aimed to encourage the fostering of community spirit through the international language of music and acknowledge the invaluable contributions made by countless volunteers in enriching all aspects of our lives.
Technical and practical support for the celebration of the UNESCO International Jazz Day on MBS Light was provided by Doo-Bop Productions, JTV Video Productions, the Music Broadcasting Society of Queensland Ltd & Totally Technical Pty Ltd.
