Jacob Collier explains harmony in 10 minutes

Jacob Collier's Music Room

Available for over a year

Jacob presents an easy-to-understand, singalonga trip through the history of Western harmony, in less time than it takes to have a cuppa - with a little help from Hildegard of Bingen, Monteverdi, JS Bach, Lionel Richie, Bob Marley, Snowpoet and the Beatles. Hear more from the brilliant Jacob Collier by searching for Jacob Collier's Music Room on BBC Sounds.
