Tonight鈥檚 mixtape opens in the Appalachian Mountains with the first movement of Appalachian Spring by Aaron Copland. From there, Camille Saint-Sa毛ns鈥檚 Romance carries us forward with effortless grace, leading into the delicate glow of Alexander Scriabin鈥檚 Prelude No. 3 in E major. A brief moment of stillness follows with In monte Oliveti by Orlande de Lassus, before a haunting arrangement of Scarlatti's Sonata in A minor for harp. We turn to song without words: Felix Mendelssohn鈥檚 Lieder ohne Worte No. 6, 鈥淔r眉hlingslied鈥 in A major. Tonight's Classical Mixtape ends with Mel Bonis, who traces the poignant arc of Ophelia鈥檚 story in music. Produced by Zara Siddiqi To listen on most smart speakers, just say 'Ask 麻豆社 Sounds to play Radio 3'.
