Alexander Hawkins presents: Break A Vase - Episode 44 (27 August 2025)

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.

On this episode the theme is the Hammond organ, during Alexander's own preparations for his own gig playing Hammond.
