Episode m001nh7x, broadcast at Thursday 13th July 2023, 7:00pm.
“Enjoy an uninterrupted half hour of delightful classical music, including a popular favourite from Saint-Saens Carnival of the animals, a charming French opera aria, Spanish sunshine from Albeniz played by a brass band, Villa-Lobos played on the guitar, and a luminous film score by Alexandre Desplat. The sequence ends with calming Renaissance polyphony and a mesmerising work for organ and Swedish folk fiddle featuring the bells of a Nordic Cathedral. Producer: Helen Garrison”
