In advance of his visit to Ronnie Scott’s in March Steve Coleman talks exclusively to One Jazz’s Jez Nelson. In this two-hour special the pioneering saxophonist, composer and band-leader talks about his 40+ year career, his mentors Doug Hammond and Abbey Lincoln, the deep-research approach he takes to his music and how he loves the risk of playing live.
You can hear this programme for the first time at 10am UK time on Wednesday 4th March – after which it will repeat regularly.
