Jools with some of his most-loved classical recordings

Jools is joined by singer Louise Marshall, with music from Brahms and Beethoven to James P. Johnson and Jay McShann.

In a new show for Saturday lunchtimes, Jools shares his lifelong passion for classical music, and the beautiful connections with jazz and blues. With fascinating guests each week, who bring their own favourite music and occasionally perform live in Jools's studio.

Today, Jools's choices include music by Handel, Beethoven and Hélène de Montgeroult, with performances from James P. Johnson, the Busch Quartet and a young Charlie Parker. His guest is the singer Louise Marshall who performs with Jools at the piano and talks about growing up in a highly musical family with her brother the organist Wayne Marshall and sister the mezzo soprano Melanie Marshall. She introduces music she loves by John Stainer, Brahms and Tchaikovsky.
