Classical music for your journey

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

A journey through musical time and space starting in a French cathedral and ending in a Chinese drinking house. We take in the serene landscape of Elgar's Chanson de Matin, plus the Indian sitar of Roopa Panesar, and venture into the dark forests with Schubert's Erlkonig. You won't be able to resist joining in the final song - the words mean 'let our fortunes never decline - a song forever in our throats.'
