Jess Gillam with... Braimah Kanneh-Mason

Jess Gillam and violinist Braimah Kanneh-Mason share music they love, including a classic Beethoven recording by violinist Itzhak Perlman and music by Etta James and Rachmaninov.

Jess Gillam and violinist Braimah Kanneh-Mason swap some of their favourite tracks and chat about their lives in music. Braimah comes armed with a classic Beethoven recording by violinist Itzhak Perlman, a feel good tune by The Melodians and a Haydn quartet. Meanwhile Jess spins Rachmaninov at his most romantic, Monteverdi by the ensemble l'Arpeggiata and a soaring performance by Etta James.
