Celebrating the competition’s tenth anniversary, four talented young performers compete for the title BBC Young Jazz Musician 2024. \n\nPresented by YolanDa Brown and Huw Stevens from the Southbank Centre’s Queen Elizabeth Hall, the competition is firmly established as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival and promises once again to showcase the British jazz stars of the future. \n\nHoping to take the coveted title are saxophonist George Johnson (19), bassist Ursula Harrison (22), pianist Nils Kavanagh (22) and trumpeter Klara Devlin (18).\n\nThey each perform a set in front of a live audience and a formidable judging panel, consisting of pianist, bandleader and educator Nikki Yeoh; saxophonist, producer and MC Soweto Kinch; award-winning trumpeter Laura Jurd; bassist, composer and band leader Jasper Høiby; and vocalist and composer Zara McFarlane.\n\nThe finalists are backed by three of the UK's leading jazz musicians, Zoe Rahman on piano, Alec Dankworth on bass and drummer Sophie Alloway.
