Josie d'Arby is joined by saxophonist and composer YolanDa Brown to present the final of BBC Young Jazz Musician 2018.

With the competition firmly established in the jazz calendar, the final moves to London and the Southbank Centre's Queen Elizabeth Hall as part of the capital's Jazz Festival. 

The finalists are pianists Reuben Goldmark and Fergus McCreadie, saxophonist Xhosa Cole, and bassists James Owston and Seth Tackaberry. They will be mentored by and perform with leading jazz musicians bassist Paula Gardner and drummer Asaf Sirkis, and led by pianist Gwilym Simcock.
