Laura Misch’s 4/4

Soweto Kinch is back with an hour of the best in jazz, and South London saxophonist and vocalist Laura Misch chooses four albums that inspire her.

This week, Soweto welcomes South London saxophonist, vocalist, producer and field recordist Laura Misch as his 4/4 guest. Laura creates sonic worlds that are deeply inspired by the natural world. Most recently, her forthcoming album “Lithic” features music recorded in locations including Dungeness’ pebbles beach, and cliffs, caves, and a treehouse in Cornwall.

From Monday to Thursday, Laura is sharing some of the albums that continue to inspire her, for our 4/4 feature. To begin her week, she chooses a record by a fellow saxophonist that she admires.

There is also music from Naiyah, Alina Bzhezhinska, and King Oliver.

‘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.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play Round Midnight".
