Raising drumming to it's highest levels, David Jones is a percussionist of virtuoso standing. Our newest Musical Portrait curator Tony Gould has chosen David for his first program, which you can hear live-to-air on Thursday February 18th.

"In the hands (and feet) of David Jones, the drum kit comes alive as a mini-orchestra, vaudeville act, rhythmic explosion and hypnotic trance-inducer, all in one. Using sticks, brushes, mallets, fingers, elbows, violin bow, dish-mops, toys, brooms… and any percussion he can lay his hands on(!), David creates a universe of sounds, textures and rhythms that take you through different cultures, ages, moods and styles."
