Jools with music for Saturday lunchtime

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 Jean Sibelius, Thomas Ades and Al Bowlly with performances by saxophonist Amy Dickson, the Danish String Quartet and conductor Susanna Malkki. His guest is the writer and critic Nicola Shulman, who introduces music she loves by Thomas Linley, Luigi Rossi and Barry Gray.
