Rosa Brunello’s Flowers

Soweto Kinch is back with another week of the best in jazz from the UK and around the world, and he welcomes bassist Rosa Brunello as his Flowers guest.

From Monday to Thursday this week, Soweto is joined by Italian bassist Rosa Brunello. Her music blends jazz, dub, free improvisation, electric rock, and more, and she has worked and performed with artists across the globe including Dee Dee Bridgewater, Yazz Ahmed, and Maurice Louca. Her new album, “We Are Surging Waters”, releases on the 6th of May.

Rosa is giving Flowers to some of the artists who are still with us and who she is inspired by. To start her week, Rosa chooses a legendary vocalist and friend of the show.

Also in the programme, there is music from New Jazz Underground, Pat Thomas, and Rebecca Wing.

‘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".
