Classical, blues and jazz for the weekend

Jools is joined by musician and producer David Ogilvy, with music by Edward Elgar, Roxanna Panufnik, Duke Ellington and Robert Kahn.

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 Antonio Vivaldi, Roxanna Panufnik and Duke Ellington, with performances from Nicola Benedetti and Elgar himself. His guest is musician and composer David Ogilvy who discusses his recently discovered family musical history which includes Roger Wolfe Kahn who was writing and performing jazz in America in the 1920s and 1930s, and the classical composer and pianist Robert Kahn who fled Germany in the 1930s and settled in Kent. David introduces music by both Roger and Robert Kahn as well as a piece written by one of Robert Kahn's friends, Johannes Brahms, and performed by one of his piano pupils, Wilhelm Kempff.
