Take 30 minutes out with a relaxing classical mix

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical favourites mixed with jazz, folk and music from around the world.

Radio 3's specially curated 30-minute musical mix to usher in your evening. Tonight, violinist Randall Goosby and bassist Xavier Dubois Foley take us to Shelter Island, there's a flurry of jazzy-sounding snowflakes, and we go waltzing in Scotland with Malcolm Arnold. Plus music by Bach, Mozart and Schubert.
