Long tracks for the longest day of the year

Soweto leads a gentle introduction to midsummer.

鈥楻ound 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 mark the summer solstice and the longest day, Soweto selects appropriate music including two long tracks: Matthew Halsall鈥檚 meditative Salute To The Sun, and John Coltrane鈥檚 version of Summertime as a gentle introduction to midsummer.
