Classical, blues and jazz for the weekend

Jools introduces music he loves by Walton, Boulanger and Peterson. Plus we hear from Corinne Bailey Rae about how learning ballet and violin as a child shapes her music today.

In his new show for Saturday lunchtimes, Jools shares his lifelong passion for classical music. 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 Meredith Monk, William Walton and Oscar Peterson, with performances from Lucienne Boyer, Janine Jansen and Charlie Barnet. We also hear from musician and songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae, recorded backstage on 'Later...', who shares one of her favourite Tchaikovsky recordings and talks about how her experience of learning ballet and playing violin in orchestras as a child shapes her music-making today.
