Power through with classical music
Episode m001886r, broadcast at Monday 20th June 2022, 7:00pm.
“An eclectic mix featuring classical favourites, lesser-known gems and a few surprises. Tonight, Bobby McFerrin jams with Yo-Yo Ma, Debussy meets radical Canadian chamber group Collectif9, and we get lyrical with George Walker. Plus Martinu conjures up a magical night, and we throw back to the arrival of spring with Earl Wild's sumptuous arrangement of Rachmaninov. Producer: David Fay”
