We have worked with our good friends at Brentford CLC in producing the first two films in what we hope will become a long collaboration in producing high quality content for musicians.

Our partners, Yamaha UK, very generously asked their artists Jools Holland and Julian Jospeh to help with producing these inspirational interviews which provide a unique and personal insight into the world of professional music.

I hope you enjoy them. It is a personal joy to have these two artists. A good friend of mine is in Jools' band and Julian Joseph's Proms appearance with his big band remains a key moment in my relationship with music.


Jools Holland is a composer, pianist, bandleader and broadcaster. In this beautifully recorded video Jools provides his overview of the business of music and how he became involved.

From playing pubs in the East End docks as a teenage greaser, to leading his rhythm and blues orchestra and selling millions of records this century, it is his passion for music that has made Jools Holland into a doyen of the music scene.

Jools was awarded an OBE in 2003 for his services to the British music industry. He is married with four children and lives in a world of his own.

We hope you enjoy watching this inspirational interview with Britain's much loved pianist and band leader.
