Synopsis

Jamie Cullum showcases his love for all types of jazz, and music rooted in jazz, from its heritage to the future.

This week, legendary jazz scat singer Jon Hendricks - who's best known for his work as part of the trio Lambert, Hendricks and Ross and for being one of the pioneers of vocalese - talks openly about his varied career and the artists he's worked with.

Jon reflects on the success of his subsequent solo career, and his work as a music professor; while bringing charm and nostalgia to his anecdotes and providing illustrative examples of scat singing.
