Half an hour of the finest classical music

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music, including a work by Chopin arranged for the marimba and a Dvorak piano quintet.

Today's mixtape features one of Rossini's most magnificent overtures, a unique marimba arrangement of music by Chopin and a sparkling quintet for piano and strings by Dvorak. Plus, Ficino Ensemble treat us to an American folk song, and we go for a Joy Ride with the master of film music John Williams via his wonderful jazzy score to Catch Me If You Can.
