Episode m000fzf4, broadcast at Thursday 13th April 2023, 7:00pm, and Monday 2nd March 2020, 7:00pm.
“Dust off your running shoes and set your pace to the bombast of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries, the pulsing Music for 18 musicians by Steve Reich and Bach's joyous Brandenburg Concerto No 3. Then hit your peak with Roby Lakatos's cracking version of the Sabre Dance by Khachaturian, before warming down to Mozart's overture to Il Re Pastore and Dave Brubeck's jazz standard Take Five, finishing with the calming Ellis Island by Meredith Monk.”
