Classical music for your journey

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music, including works by Giuseppe Verdi, Gustav Mahler, Lili Boulanger and John Rutter.

Raise a glass for the opening of your Classical Mixtape tonight with the famous brindisi from Verdi's La Traviata. Follows the romanticism of Swan Lake and the playfulness of Boccherini's string quintet. Playful too is Mozart's Rondo, while John Rutter's choir is dancing. Then have some tea (for two) with Shostakovich and a piece of cake with Philip Glass. And from a film to another, classical music is beautifully cinematographic in Mahler's melancholic Adagietto, before concluding with Lili Boulanger's Cort猫ge.
