Classical music for focus or relaxation

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical music.

This evening's musical journey on the Classical Mixtape starts with music by Sibelius, moving through solo JS Bach to a concerto for two cellos by Romberg. We travel via part of Prokofiev's score to Romeo and Juliet to music by CPE Bach, Joseph White and ending with one of Dvorak's Slavonic Dances.
