Jools's musical selection for a Saturday lunchtime

Jools is joined by pianist Neil Cowley ahead of his gig at this year's EFG London Jazz Festival. Featuring music by Jean Sibelius, Amy Beach, John Barry and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

In a new show for Saturday lunchtimes, Jools shares his lifelong passion for classical music, and the beautiful connections with jazz and blues. With fascinating guests each week, who bring their own favourite music and occasionally perform live in Jools's studio.

Today, Jools's choices include music by Jean Sibelius, Amy Beach and Arvo Part, with performances from the Attacca Quartet and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Jools's guest is pianist and composer Neil Cowley who discusses his journey through music, reuniting with his trio, and his gig at this year's EFG London Jazz Festival. He introduces music he loves by Mozart, Shostakovich and John Barry.
