“A relaxing mix of classical music for half an hour, featuring Tine Thing Helseth’s soothing adagio from Marcello’s trumpet concerto, as well as piano music by Ravel, plus music inspired by the tallest mountain in the United States – Ola Gjeilo’s sublime setting of the Ave Maria from the book of Genesis. To listen on most smart speakers just say “ask BBC Sounds to play Classical Mixtape.””
