Relax with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music.
Tonight's mixtape starts with a haunting motet by William Henry Harris, Bring Us, O Lord God, sung by Tenebrae. David Childs plays the tenor tuba in Vaughan Williams's Romanza and Sofya Gulyak plays Medtner's serene Fairy Tale No.1 in E flat major, from his Op.26. We are taken to Brazil by Villa-Lobos in the Aria (Cantilena) from his Bachiana brasileira No.5, followed by Joseph Boulogne Chevalier de Saint-Georges's largo from the Violin Concerto in A major. Tonight's mixtape ends with the deft touch of Paul Lewis playing Brahms's Intermezzo No.2 in A major for piano.
