A TALENTED South Cumbria musician made an appearance on a Sky's comedy show alongside some well-known faces.

Jess Gillam joined Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan on their TV show Rob & Romesh Vs.

The show features the comedy duo facing challenges and going on a journey of discovery to discover what they like and don’t.

In the fourth episode of the fifth series, Rob and Romesh were on a mission to become classical music maestros joining the world-famous London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Their journey took them through some of music's greatest hits before performing at the Royal Festival Hall in London.

Jess, the acclaimed musician from Ulverston, was tasked with giving Rob and Romesh a crash course in classical music ahead of their performance with the orchestra. 

Jess plays some well-known classical tracks and challenges the pair to try to name the composers and songs, with Rob proving to be a bit of a dark horse.

The musician said on social media: "Beethoven’s not performing much now, is he? This is going to be so funny! Rob + Romesh are hilarious, and on their show Rob + Romesh vs, I got to give a little introduction to classical music."

The musician and broadcaster also announced on social media that she is heading to the USA to play at Aspen Music Fest this week. 

Founded in 1949, the Aspen Music Festival is regarded as one of the top classical music festivals in the United States, noted both for its concert programming and its musical training of mostly young-adult music students.

The typical eight-week summer season includes more than 400 classical music events and brings in 100,000 audience members. 

Jess is the first saxophonist to become a finalist on BBC Young Musician. Alongside performing as a musician, Jess is a TV and radio presenter working on shows such as BBC Proms and BBC Young Musicians.
