Jazz is (Still) Dangerous, with Kresten Osgood

49 min28 april 2026

When we declare music a “universal language,” what space do we leave for regional dialects and local customs? How has jazz evolved from a uniquely American export into a music that truly knows no borders? These and other questions hang in the air as we prepare to celebrate International Jazz Day at a moment of roiling global tensions.

It feels like the right time to connect with Kresten Osgood — a Danish drummer, composer and commentator, and host of the podcast Dangerous Sounds. He joins Josh Jackson for a far-ranging conversation, sharing his perspective on the music and the mission.

Following the interview, Osgood performed a solo drum improvisation. Watch here: youtu.be/arjCn6U4QRU
