Pianist Hiromi shares her jazz influences. Plus live music from bassist Henri Texier.

Julian Joseph presents an interview with Japanese piano star Hiromi who shares some of the music that inspires her, including the Oscar Peterson track that introduced her to the joy of swing and a musical 鈥渞ollercoaster ride鈥 by Frank Zappa that informed her own playful approach to the piano.
