This Classical Life - Jess Gillam with... Jakub Josef Orlinski

Download Jess Gillam with... Jakub Josef Orlinski

Jess Gillam and countertenor Jakub Josef Orlinski share some of the music they love, including saxophone music by John Harle, Andreas Scholl singing Handel, a slice of feelgood from Gregory Porter and some Polish rap from O.S.T.R.

Plus Jakub shares how he ended up becoming one of the world's biggest countertenors by drawing straws in his choir (and losing) and how his past as a skateboarder and breakdancer influenced the music he loves
