Baritone and composer Roderick Williams and violinist Jennifer Pike - the youngest ever winner of BBC Young Musician of the Year at the time in 2002, aged just 12 - join Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye to add five more tracks to the playlist.

The musical choices take us from one of the most famous tunes in the UK (composer unknown) to a Labi Siffre hit famously sampled by Eminem, via arguably the most recognisable film theme of all time. Labi Siffre makes an appearance to look back on his 1975 classic.

Producer Jerome Weatherald Presented, with music direction, by Cerys Matthews and Jeffrey Boakye

The five tracks in this week's playlist:

God Save the Queen (from 1888 and 1898) In Flanders Fields by Charles Ives and John McCrae Jaws – Main Title by John Williams Violin Sonata No.2 in G Major: III Perpetuum mobile by Maurice Ravel I Got the... by Labi Siffre

Other music in this episode:
