It’s festival season – for this edition of ‘That’s My Jazz’ we’ll explore the music and stories of some iconic festival performances and look forward to what’s coming up this year.

There’s something in jazz for everyone! Exploring themes which connect the past and present of jazz, this show highlights contemporary artists, revisits landmark albums and reveals lesser-known tracks from more than a century of jazz on record. Whether you are new to jazz or a long-standing fan, this is the show that will help you find your jazz.

To celebrate the start of the school summer holidays here’s an hour of jazz inspired by the young … and young at heart!
