Classical music for focus or relaxation
Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music, including music by Beethoven, Debussy, and a James Bond film score.
Wind down for thirty minutes to a sequence of uninterrupted classical music, weaving many styles into the mix including chamber music by Beethoven, delicate dance music from Debussy, and a yearning cello concerto from Anna Clyne. French gracefulness from Poulenc sits alongside a James Bond film score, and the programme ends with a heart felt love sonnet by Shakespeare set to music by William Lloyd Webber.
Producer: Helen Garrison
