Jamie鈥檚 guest on the show this week is the trumpeter, composer, educator and label boss Mark Kavuma, who joins him for a Take 5 interview.

Mark first picked up the trumpet in secondary school before quickly joining the South London carnival band Kinetika Bloco鈦犫攁 move that kick started his passion for music, and saw him meet many of the players who would become key figures in the current thriving UK jazz scene.
