Sad that the BBC feel it does not deserve to continue, surely there is place for this genre of music though they say with Jamie Cullum and Sunday Night is Music Night some examples of this style will continue . The show is being replaced by Top Brass with James Morrison [assume its the British Soul Singer of Broken Strings fame] assume that this will be more Soul orientated than Jazz and Swing . It is so disappointing .
Given the title of Top Brass I would expect it to be presented by multi-instrumentalist James Morrison who hosted a show of that name a couple of years back on BBC2 playing a variety of brass recordings ranging from brass bands to swing and jazz bands.
Lance, you're right, it's Aussie multi-instrumentalist James Morrison presenting a second series of Top Brass. Last night's edition preceded Clare Teal's final programme. Teal teased her listeners saying they should keep an eye on social media, suggesting she will apoear on the airwaves elsewhere.
