  • ‘Where in the World’ with Tom Ollendorff
    Apr 14 2026

    Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, where I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.

    Guitarist Tom Ollendorff joins me for a conversation as he is set to tour his 2025 album Where in the World around the world. I’ve heard him play with a number of different ensembles, including with Germana Stella La Sorsa and Tina Mildmay and it’s always a delight. I can highly recommend checking out one of his tour dates when he comes anywhere near you.

    This is our second episode, following our original chat in June 2023.

    Thanks to Tom for allowing me to play extracts from Where in the World alongside our conversation

  • A little taste of Latin jazz with Eliane Correa
    Apr 6 2026

    Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, where I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.

    I was delighted to be joined by pianist and composer Eliane Correa, who is presenting Las Salseras: A Tribute to Celia Cruz at London’s Jazz Cafe, to celebrate the centenary of the legendary Cuban singer who inspired her. There are still tickets available for this one-off gig on Saturday 25 April.

    Thanks to Eliane for allowing me to play extracts from Signo de Fuego alongside our conversation. You can hear more of her music on Bandcamp.

  • Welcome to this trailer for season 24 of Harmonious World
    Apr 1 2026

    This year’s Harmonious World episodes are stacking up fast and I’m delighted that there are so many brilliant musicians creating music and talking to me about it.

    I was pleased to be recognised as one of the top 15 jazz podcasts by PodRanker.

    Season 24 is already getting booked up with real musicians joining me for interviews.

    I’m an independent podcaster and getting to gigs, spending time on interviews, editing etc takes a lot of my resources. If you’re able to help with just the price of a cup of tea once a month, please check out my Patreon site: the link is in the show notes and there are lots of goodies available as a thank you.

    Please keep listening to Harmonious World and share, rate and review wherever you find me. It really does help.

    For now, thank you for listening - especially those of you who I meet in real life or send me messages - and I hope you stay happy, safe and well.
