“Today's eclectic In Tune Mixtape begins with Benjamin Britten's take on Rossini and the ensemble Fires of London's take on a Bach prelude and fugue. We also hear the heavenly voices of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, exuberant writing for French horn by Schumann, and a Latin evocation of cinnamon flower, as well as music by Scriabin and Bizet.”
