Summer scents and making the most of life, whatever it throws at you, are at the heart of tonight鈥檚 mixtape, which includes music by Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Bartok.

Summer scents and making the most of life whatever it throws at you are at the heart of tonight鈥檚 mixtape. A bouquet of waltzing flowers from Tchaikovsky leads into high drama with Beethoven. Poulenc lightens the tone with the blooming sounds of the horn, trombone and trumpet which blends into music by Canadian composer and tenor, Jeremy Dutcher鈥檚 contribution to his native First World heritage and community in attempts to revitalise the Wolastoq language to the world, which has less than 100 speakers alive today. We hear a portrait of the young Juliet Capulet, and whistle while we work, energised by a fast Romanian Folk dance courtesy of Bartok.
