“An eclectic daily mix featuring classical favourites, lesser-known gems and a few surprises. Today's Mixtape includes a contemporary Estonian folk song from Mari Kalkun, a spirited period instrument performance of Mozart's Marriage of Figaro Overture, and music by Faure that may bring back childhood radio memories. There's also music by Steve Reich, Oscar Peterson, William Byrd, Hildegard of Bingen and Samuel Coleridge Taylor.”
