My year of music-making in lockdown

Jacob Collier invites us in to his music room to play music that's got him through an extraordinary year and performs something himself.

Jazz musician, composer and songwriter Jacob Collier has spent most of 2020 in lockdown in his legendary music room in north London surrounded by a myriad of instruments - a change from his hectic life on tour, giving gigs around the world and releasing multiple albums. It has got him thinking more about music that inspires him, and discovering new sounds. In this second of two special programmes recorded remotely in his music room, Jacob plays us music from the world of jazz, folk, classical and beyond that's got him through this extraordinary year, including music by Benjamin Britten, Jonathan Dove, Erykah Badu and Hermeto Pascaol. We'll also get a unique insight in to the music-making that's been happening at Jacob's household during lockdown, with an exclusive recording of Jacob and his family performing Mozart and a special performance by Jacob himself.

Jacob Collier is a Grammy-winning jazz vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. He became an Internet sensation in the early 2010s with his layered performances on YouTube which caught the attention of Quincy Jones. His debut album, 2016's In My Room, reached the Top Three of the Billboard jazz chart. In 2020 Jacob released the third part of his four-album series Djesse which features collaborations with musicians from all over the world
