Laura Jurd live in session

Available for 21 days

‘Round Midnight is presented by award-winning saxophonist Soweto Kinch. This weekday late-night show celebrates the thriving UK jazz scene and spotlights the best new music alongside incredible acts from past decades. Soweto has a final selection of highlights from our ‘Round Midnight showcase recorded at the Barbican as part of last year’s London Jazz Festival. Last Friday, Fergus McCreadie, sitting in for Soweto, shared music from LVDF, and the Friday previous Soweto brought us music from ESKA. Tonight, we hear more music from leading British trumpeter, and BBC Radio 3 New Generation alumnus Laura Jurd, performing pieces from her latest album Rites & Revelations. She was joined by her quartet featuring viola player Cori Smith, bassist Ruth Goller and drummer Corrie Dick. To listen on most smart speakers, just say: 'Ask BBC Sounds to play Round Midnight.'
