Power through with classical music
Episode m000hflq, broadcast at Monday 20th April 2020, 7:00pm.
“In Tune's specially curated playlist with the heart-stopping aria Tristes apprets by Rameau, Steve Reich's punchy New York Counterpoint and to close, the choral Vigilate by William Byrd. There's also a sunny Rondo from Beethoven's 'Pastorale' sonata, the Spanish dance from Swan Lake and Caterina Assandra's compact motet Impleos nostrum. And there's some hypnotic folk music from Zanzibar and a youthfully Romantic Piano Trio by Richard Strauss. Producer Ewa Norman”
