Expand your horizons with classical music

A 30-minute soundscape of classical music, with music by Chopin, Mozart and Philip Glass.

Aside from his monumental works in the classical canon, Beethoven also wrote popular pieces for a bit of extra cash, and tonight's mix starts with one of his many settings of Irish folk songs. This leads into a Mozart piano duet, then Brahms's glorious sunny scherzo from his Fourth Symphony. A movement from the Philip Glass 'Heroes' symphony and a Mahler song setting completes the mix.
