Jess Gillam with... Alison Balsom at the Hay Festival

Jess Gillam and trumpeter Alison Balsom are joined by a live audience at The Hay Festival to have a listening party of some of the music they love the most. Alison brings along one of their most beautiful tunes and outs herself as a Queen superfan, then shares the Miles Davis tune that brings her most joy. Meanwhile Jess shares an absolute banger by Piazzolla, an epic sax solo by Rachmaninov and a breathtaking performance by Nina Simone.Playlist:BACH: Brandenburg Concerto no.4 - 1st mvt (English Concert, Trevor Pinnock) DAVID BOWIE: Dollar Days (from Blackstar) MILES DAVIS: If I Were a Bell (Miles Davis Quintet) RACHMANINOV: Symphonic Dances, op. 45 - No.1 {Philadelphia Orchestra, Yannick Nezet-Seguin) PIAZZOLLA: Histoire du Tango: Night Club 1960 (Astoria) QUEEN: Love of my Life (from A Night at the Opera) NINA SIMONE: Stars (Live at the Montreux Jazz festival) STRAVINSKY: The Firebird - finale (City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Simon Rattle)
