Power through with classical music

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music.

Tonight's musical journey takes us from Richard Strauss writing for 13 wind instruments to a movement of a violin sonata by JS Bach arranged for string quartet; richly romantic Brahms from Murray Perahia before Robert Parsons' heart-stopping Ave Maria. The unbeatable sound of the 12 cellos of the Berlin Philharmonic tonight with a Brazilian twist, followed by solo piano music by Mendelssohn and the sequence ends with Haydn's 'Bear' Symphony.
