Your go-to introduction to classical music
In Tune's Classical Music Mixtape: an imaginative, eclectic mix which tonight includes concertos by Mozart and Vivaldi, a Fanfare to the Common Man, and Delius's La Calinda.
Tonight, we join Delius in the orange groves of Florida, place our hope in God with Will Todd’s Birthday Quartet, revel in the energy of Mozart’s ‘Coronation’ Piano Concerto, and offer a Fanfare to the Common Man. We dance the evening away with Leroy Anderon’s Jazz Pizzicato, then pause to draw breath with the sardonic irony of Shostakovich played by Olli Mustonen, before the warm glow of summer radiates out from the quill of Antonio Vivaldi.
