Radio host Karl Haas would have turned 100 on Dec. 6. Many may remember him from the classical radio program “Adventures in Good Music.” It aired for 44 years, first on Detroit’s WJR and later in syndication on public and commercial radio stations around the world. His son, Jeff Haas, shared his father’s passion for music, but Jeff found his home in the world of jazz.
The Jeff Haas Quintetcomes to Wharton Center this Sunday afternoon with a celebration of Karl Haas’ life and work. Jeff Haas discusses his father's legacy, music and the tribute concert.
