We round off 2021 with a hugely enjoyable conversation with celebrated cellist, singer & composer Ayanna Witter-Johnson.

We talk about playing on the big stage, balancing musical interests, and all the many influences that have made Ayanna such an original and in-demand musician.

Ayanna's album choices include:

Africa to America: The Journey of the Drum by Sounds of Blackness (1994) released on Perspective

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder (1973) released on Tamla

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar (2015) released on AME, Aftermath & Interscope
