Classical music for your journey
Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music by Gjeilo, Brahms, and Mangore.
Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music - from the romantic depth of Bottesini鈥檚 Gran Concerto for double bass to the luminous serenity of Ola Gjeilo鈥檚 Ubi Caritas. Haydn鈥檚 shadowed Trio in F-sharp minor offers classical elegance with a twist of emotional unrest, while Brahms鈥 Intermezzo Op.117 No. 1 wraps us in quiet introspection. Agust铆n Barrios Mangor茅 offers a tenderness with his timeless guitar miniature Julia Florida. We also shine a light on voices less often heard: Leokadiya Kashperova鈥檚 hauntingly atmospheric Night for female chorus and finish with Alice Mary Smith鈥檚 second piece of her graceful Six Short Pieces for Piano.
Produced by Zara Siddiqi.
