Cosy music for autumn feat. Hania Rani

Ólafur Arnalds shares a cosy selection of seasonal sounds for autumn, with a safe haven from Polish pianist Hania Rani.

Join Icelandic composer and pianist Ólafur Arnalds on an hour-long musical journey into calmness with some appropriately seasonal sounds.

In this episode, Ólafur takes inspiration from the changing of the seasons and shares a selection of calming and cosy sounds inspired by autumn. He shares autumnal music from Tchaikovsky, Dorothy Ashby and Imogen Holst, selecting pieces that mark the seasonal changes, and reflects on what he loves about autumn in Iceland.

Plus the Polish pianist Hania Rani transports us to her safe haven, the place she feels most calm, curled up in her attic listening to the rain on the roof.
