Allexa Nava's Flowers
Soweto is back with another week of top picks from the UK and international jazz scenes, and emerging jazz saxophonist Allexa Nava celebrates some of the artists that inspire her.
This week from Monday to Thursday, Soweto is joined by Peruvian London based saxophonist and flautist Allexa Nava. Since honing her craft as part of talent development organisation Tomorrow鈥檚 Warriors, and while studying at London鈥檚 Trinity Laban, Allexa is now making her way in the city鈥檚 jazz community. She is part of Latin-jazz ensemble COLECTIVA and is also a bandleader in her own right.
To start her week, Allexa chooses a fellow saxophonist who is widely revered and that she is influenced by.
There is also music from Hillarynx, Ingrid Jensen, and Cassie Kinoshi.
鈥楻ound 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.
To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask 麻豆社 Sounds to play Round Midnight".
