Celebrating Dizzy and Don

Soweto is back with more exciting new releases and jazz classics, and Immanuel Wilkins returns with another selection from his record collection for 4/4.

Soweto welcomes back his guest from Monday to Thursday this week, American saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins, who is picking some of his favourite jazz records for 4/4. Tonight, he chooses an album from an avant-garde saxophonist and flautist from Chicago.

Also in the programme, there is music from from Wonky Logic, Booker Little and Linda Sikhakhane.

‘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.
