Expand your horizons with classical music

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape, including music by Telemann, Tchaikovsky and the Tenores di Bitti.

Glenn Miller's lively take on Italian opera is set against the real thing, and while we're in Italy, we hear some red-hot ardour from Monteverdi, and some gentle shepherding from Sardinia's Tenores di Bitti. Travelling via Beethoven and Tchaikovsky, we come to a serene finale with the first of Mahler's Ruckert-Lieder.
