Fresh from Arooj Aftab and Bonobo

Soweto presents more of the best new releases and jazz classics, and Australian trumpeter and multi-instrumentalist Audrey Powne has a third favourite album to share for 4/4.

Australian trumpeter, vocalist, and producer Audrey Powne is back with her third 4/4 selection of the week, and tonight she chooses an influential neo-soul record.

Also in the programme, there is music from Djavan, FAUZIA and Ni Maxine.

‘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.
