Plus with the news of a new film about Leonard Cohen just released we鈥檒l hear some of his songs given a jazz twist by singers Norah Jones and Madeleine Peyroux along with brand new music from Perth born saxophonist Helena Kay and a kaleidoscopic collaboration featuring electronics & rap from Danger Mouse , Black Thought and Michael Kiwanuka. We鈥檒l also hear music from some of the artists playing at this year鈥檚 Islay Jazz Festival alongside sounds from a selection of young drummers on the jazz scene today including Lorraine Baker, Graham Costello and Ari Hoenig.
