“Music to help you wind down after a busy day, and imagine you're floating on the ocean with Ronald Binge's "Sailing by", made famous by the Shipping Forecast. Another work familiar to many is "Eliza's Aria" by Elena Kats-Chernin. Also in the mix is music by Brahms, Vaughan Williams, Rachmaninov, a seductive love song by Reynaldo Hahn, and a haunting depiction of planetary movement by Joby Talbot. Producer: Helen Garrison”
