“In Tune's specially curated playlist, including an idyll for cello and organ by Elgar, Scottish-flavoured music by Amy Beach, and from Sousa - not a march but a romantic reverie. Also featured are majestic Venetian brass music by Gabrieli, a jaunty gigue by Handel, a German dance by Schubert, Alec Roth's setting for choir of George Herbert's The Flower and Tchaikovsky's perennial Waltz of the Flowers. Producer: Ian Wallington”
