Jess Gillam with... Elsa Bradley

Jess Gillam and percussionist Elsa Bradley chat about the music they love. With music by Mozart, Isobel Waller-Bridge and Warsaw Village Band.

Jess Gillam and percussionist Elsa Bradley chat about the music they love. Featuring the drama of Mozart's Requiem in D minor, Eugen Cicero injecting some caffeine into CPE Bach's Solfeggio, Arnold Bax’s majestic symphonic poem Tintagel. Plus Elsa goes wild in a field, or maybe just her kitchen, to the Warsaw Village Band, and we have a miniature moment of calm from Isobel Waller-Bridge.
