Harmonious World
Harmonious World consists of interviews with great musicians, composers and producers across all genres, from jazz to classical, from folk to rock and everything in between. I’m a writer, musician and podcaster and this all started with a Quincy Jones quote I came across by chance during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown: “Imagine what a harmonious world it could be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing." I'm so pleased to have interviewed - and will continue to interview - so many great musicians from around the world.

Starting Christmas early with Ashley Slater and 'Merry Jazzmas'
Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, in which I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.
Although I don't usually mention Christmas until December, there are a couple of great albums out that will help us all get into the spirit of the season. My first features an old friend, trombonist, singer and composer Ashley Slater. His album Merry Jazzmas is out now and you can read my review of it here.
This is the second appearance for Ashley - the first was way back in April 2021 on episode 42.
Thanks to Ashley for letting me play tracks from the album alongside our conversation and I hope you enjoy listening to them.
Get in touch to let me know what you think!

Don't forget the Quincy Jones quote that sums up why I do this: "Imagine what a harmonious world it would be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing."
