Theo Croker in conversation

Tonight we hear from genre-transcending US trumpeter Theo Croker.

‘Round Midnight is presented by award-winning saxophonist Soweto Kinch. This weekday late-night show celebrates the thriving UK jazz scene and spotlights the best new music alongside incredible acts from past decades.

Tonight we hear from genre-transcending US trumpeter Theo Croker. Soweto caught up with Theo backstage at the Fire Station in Sunderland ahead of his headline performance at our inaugural ‘Round Midnight Prom in July.

Theo and Soweto discussed everything from the jazz greats he was mentored by, the dissolution of genre, and the power of manifesting.

Also in the programme, Soweto shares more concert highlights from Theo’s ‘Round Midnight Prom performance. Theo was joined by his powerhouse quartet featuring pianist Idris Frederick, bassist Eric Wheeler, and drummer Jeremiah Collier.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say: 'Ask ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to play Round Midnight.'
