A blissful 30-minute classical mix

In Tune's specially curated playlist: an eclectic mix of music, including George Gershwin, Fanny Mendelssohn and the Tom Millar Quartet.

Today's mixtape begins with an original composition by Alton A Adams, who became the first African-American bandleader. Elsewhere, Benjamin Grosvenor plays a beautiful piano arrangement of George Gershwin's Love Walked In, there's chamber music from Louise Farrenc and Fanny Mendelssohn, and the Tom Millar quartet take us to the rural Scottish community of Inversnaid.

Producer: Nick Taylor
