Miles Davis 100: Miles Davis in concert

Soweto presents music from a selection of previously unreleased recordings of Miles Davis live in concert, ranging from the 1960s to 1980s.

Tonight, Soweto presents a special programme featuring music exclusively by Miles Davis, as part of Miles Davis 100 on Radio 3, celebrating the centenary of the legendary musician and composer.

We hear live music highlights from a collective of previously unreleased radio recordings, that have been unearthed by the EBU. The recordings range from 1960s to 1980s, and feature fellow jazz greats alongside Miles including Wayne Shorter, Gary Bartz, and Herbie Hancock.

‘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".
