Alexander Hawkins presents: Break A Vase - Episode 4 (21 August 2024)

Break A Vase began in 2023 as the efforts of a busy touring musician to reacquaint himself when at home with various corners of his physical music collection. Each episode finds Hawkins free-associating his way around his shelves, resulting in a genre-blind trip which takes in jazz, improvised, classical, traditional and pop musics from across the planet and the ages, and much else besides.
