Kansas City, MO – The Jazz and Beyond concert series at Kansas City's All Souls Unitarian church is just past halfway through its first season. So far the series has presented mostly traditional jazz combos playing mostly straight ahead styles. But as KCUR's Lee Ingalls reports, the next concert in the Jazz and Beyond series promises to put the emphasis on "Beyond."
