Stratospheric sounds from Ferg’s Imaginary Big Band

Soweto is back with another hour of the best in jazz and China Moses returns with her fourth and final Flowers choice of the week.

All this week, Soweto has been joined by American vocalist, producer and broadcaster China Moses as his Flowers guest. Rounding off her week, China chooses an artist which another ‘Round Midnight guest recently also celebrated, meaning they have been given a double bunch.

Also in the programme, there is music from Dinosaur, Yazz Ahmed, and a chance to hear an additional highlight from saxophonist Jean Toussaint talking about the late great Sonny Rollins, following our recent Friday night focus.

‘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".
