Vocalese is one of the lesser-known tributaries of jazz - the setting and singing of original words to improvised jazz solos - but it has led to some spectacular vocal performances.

Jon Hendricks , Annie Ross , Georgie Fame , Tim Hauser and Dan Morgenstern. Producer Dave Batchelor
Repeated Friday 12.30am
