Nick Luscombe

Nick Luscombe's musical choices include a new work for symphony orchestra, modern/retro Italian grooves and Senegalese free jazz from celebrated drummer Mor Thiam.

Nick's musical choices include a new work by young British composer Dani Howard. Written for symphony orchestra and premiered late last year, it is rhythmically energetic and richly scored. Also on the programme, Italian multi-instrumentalist Alex Puddu's tribute to vintage Italian horror movies blends retro jazz-funk with North African flavours, plus a new reissue by legendary Senegalese drummer Mor Thiam.

Produced by Chris Elcombe for Reduced Listening.
