‘Round Midnight is Radio 3’s weekday evening jazz show, presented by British saxophonist Soweto Kinch. It spotlights the best jazz, with an emphasis on the thriving UK scene.

Throughout the week, UK trumpeter Laura Jurd will be selecting music from living legends, unsung heroes and artists she thinks deserve recognition and respect. Today, bassist Ruth Goller, is given her Flowers.

Plus, there's music from Danish duo Svaneborg Kardyb, US saxophonist Nicole McCabe and Scottish saxophonist Matt Carmichael - who like Laura Jurd and Ruth Goller, also features on the Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival line-up this week.

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.
