Brand new from Tyshawn Sorey

Soweto is back with more of the best new releases and jazz classics, and Alex Hitchcock has a fourth artist to spotlight on Flowers.

All this week, Soweto’s guest has been London saxophonist and arranger Alex Hitchcock. He’s been giving flowers to some of the artists that are meaningful to him. Rounding off his week, Alex gives a final bunch to a Japanese cellist, singer and composer.

There is also music from Hannabiell, Joe Webb and Dizzy Gillespie.

‘Round Midnight is presented by award-winning saxophonist Soweto Kinch. This weekday late-night show celebrates the thriving UK jazz scene and spotlights the best new music alongside incredible acts from past decades.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say: 'Ask BBC Sounds to play Round Midnight.'
