Jazzmeia Horn in concert, Brandee Younger
Live music from vocalist Jazzmeia Horn. Plus harpist Brandee Younger’s jazz inspirations.
Jumoké Fashola presents live music from one of the most exciting vocalists on the scene, Jazzmeia Horn, recorded at SFJazz Centre in San Francisco. Horn won the prestigious Thelonious Monk Institute International Jazz Competition in 2015 and has been compared to greats such as Betty Carter and Sarah Vaughan. Backed by her quartet, she performs imaginative takes on standards.
Also in the programme, harpist Brandee Younger shares some of the music that inspires her, including tracks by her heroes Dorothy Ashby and Alice Coltrane. And Jumoké plays a mix of jazz classics and the best new releases.
This programme was first broadcast last September.
Produced by Dominic Tyerman for Somethin’ Else.
