Jools and guests share their musical favourites

Jools is joined by saxophonist Michael 'Bami' Rose with music by William Lawes, Franz Schubert, Caroline Shaw and John Coltrane.

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 William Lawes, Caroline Shaw and Paul Hindemith, with performances from the legendary Russian pianist Maria Yudina and the viol consort Fretwork. His guest is Jamaican saxophonist Michael "Bami" Rose who talks about the music that surrounded him as a child growing up in Jamaica and picking up the saxophone when he moved to England. He performs live in the studio with Jools and introduces music he loves by Schubert, Telemann and Mario Lanza.
