Saxophonist Donald Harrison talks about his new album, The Magic Touch, a multi-genre Nouveau Swing compilation, which includes nine stylistically different compositions of the same song. The idea began in 2005 when Harrison recorded “3D,” three separate CDs dedicated to different genres (jazz, soul, and hip hop) but were recreations of the same song collections.

The lineup includes: Nayo Jones & Herlin Riley (4pm), Donald Harrision (5pm), Kermit Ruffins (6:15pm), Carlos Rivas (7pm) & Spyro Gyra (8:30pm). Tickets available at scottsdalejazzfest.org
