Music and gardens
Jools is joined by Christopher Woodward from the Garden Museum in London, with a selection of garden-related music, including Debussy, Handel, Stevie Wonder and The Skatalites.
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 Domenico Scarlatti, Alissa Firsova and Gerald Finzi, with performances from Anne Queff茅lec, Pablo Casals and Vikingur 脫lafsson. Jools's guest is the director of the Garden Museum in London, Christopher Woodward, who talks about the meaning of gardens, music at Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens in the 18th century, and his upcoming exhibition of lost gardens at the museum. He introduces garden-related music by Debussy, Prokofiev and Handel.
