Verity Sharp with Jarvis Cocker's Scott Walker mixtape

Verity Sharp introduces a Scott Walker-themed mixtape from Jarvis Cocker, ahead of a Prom celebrating Walker's music. Plus tracks from Olafur Arnalds and Mbira DzeNharira.

The latest in our series of mixtapes looks ahead to the Scott Walker Prom later this month, as Jarvis Cocker, a devotee of the pop-turned-avant-garde singer, curates lesser-known cuts from his catalogue.

Also on the show, Verity Sharp's musical choices include music by Icelandic producer 脫lafur Arnalds, thumb-piano orchestra Mbira DzeNharira, and an early Joan Armatrading classic.

Produced by Chris Elcombe for Reduced Listening.
