Jess Gillam with... Jessie Grimes

Jess Gillam and clarinettist Jessie Grimes swap Mozart and Mussorgsky, polished pop from The Beatles and Vulfpeck and get sentimental over Satie and Schubert.

Jess and clarinettist Jessie Grimes swap the music they love, including the Mozart Clarinet Concerto that first sparked Jessie's interest in the clarinet, a Beatles classic with an indefinable opening chord, polished pop by Vulfpeck and Schubert's emotional Shepherd on the Rock.

This Classical Life is also available as a podcast on 91Èȱ¬ Sounds.
