• Voting for the Parliamentary Jazz Awards closes on Wednesday 20 June – vote here.

• The BBC Four series Africa – a Journey Into Music should give an interesting insight into one of the main roots of jazz. The first episode (Nigeria) is now on iPlayer.

• If you were lucky enough to have secured tickets for the Progress Theatre in August and September last year you’ll remember the fabulous youthful performances by the Tom Smith Septet and the Alex Hitchcock Quintet. Some of the musicians from those line-ups will appear as part of the Emerging Talent ‘Jazz Futures’ Showcase at this year’s Brecon Jazz festival – more here. That should be well worth the trip to Wales. Nearer to home, on 31 August, Jazz at Progress will feature another exciting young band – details soon.

• Make sure your party goes with a swing – see our Book A Party Band service.
