Classical music to inspire you
An eclectic mix featuring classical favourites, lesser-known gems and a few surprises.
A joyful journey through popular classics from a whimsical waltz by Chopin to the rousing finale of Khachaturian's Spartacus Suite No.1, the Dance of the Gaditanae and Victory of Spartacus, also with a Rondo from Haydn's Second Horn Concerto, Chabrier's Habanera and a madrigal by Monteverdi.
