About this episode
An eclectic selection of jazz music reflecting the festive spirit and the music business's efforts to support musicians during Christmas.
An eclectic selection of music that may reflect the desire of the “music business” to generate some income for musicians over the festive period! Or it may represent a genuine love for all things Christmas – or both! An hour of jazz selected to sit back and enjoy.
