Paul Dunmall’s Sun Ship Quartet plus Alan Skidmore

Soweto Kinch presents Paul Dunmall’s Sun Ship Quartet with special guest Alan Skidmore from the 2018 Herts Jazz Festival.

Al Ryan talks to film historian Helen Wheatley about the newly discovered broadcast of Duke Ellington’s First Sacred Concert, recorded in Coventry Cathedral in 1966, where the restored film will be shown again for the first time in 62 years on 29 December, including a number specially written for Coventry and only ever performed there this one time by the Ellington Orchestra.

And there's a chance to hear a panel discussion hosted by Soweto, looking at discrimination in jazz, with composer Issie Baratt, saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi, Jazz Re:freshed's Justin McKenzie and NYJO's Nigel Tully.

Live music and the arts: broadcasts more live music than any other radio network. Classical music is its core. Genres include world and new music, jazz, speech and drama.
