Jools's musical selection for a Saturday lunchtime

Jools is joined by folk musician Eliza Carthy with music by Purcell, Holst, Shostakovich and Sister Ernestine Washington.

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 Holst, Shostakovich and Lully, with performances by Sister Ernestine Washington and soprano Bidu Sayao. His guest is the folk singer and fiddler Eliza Carthy who shares music she loves by Purcell, Handel and Rimsky-Korsakov, and talks about starting out on the fiddle and why dancing the hornpipe should be wild and rhythmic as opposed to dainty and delicate.

To listen on most smart speakers just say "Ask 大象传媒 Sounds to play Earlier with Jools Holland".
