The program web site says...
"Thrilling California-based saxophonist and composer Kamasi Washington has been described as the biggest thing to hit jazz for years. Having toured for over a decade with artists such as Herbie Hancock, Lauryn Hill and Snoop Dogg, he now brings his own band to the Proms, combining with the strings of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and choral backing, to perform tracks from his groundbreaking recent three-disc album The Epic."
...which is over-hyping to a great extent as it is fairly MOR jazz, and a clear demonstration of why classically oriented orchestras / choirs should not play rhythmic music as they lag way
behind the beat, but this may not be of concern to some and it is a clear recording (in contrast to the Rai3 version) and I know he is popular, so here it is.
