Three hours of classical sparkle

Petroc Trelawny with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, whether you鈥檙e listening at home, or on your way for a day out.

Today, Petroc's choices include Holst's folk-tinged Brook Green Suite,聽Igor Moscheles vibrant first Piano Concerto and music to celebrate the birthday of a baroque master.

This聽week's Choral Reflection is Morton Lauridsen's wondrous Sure on this Shining Night, and Petroc picks his favourite recording of Beethoven's second Symphony to聽play in full.聽
