Classical music for your journey

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

This evening's Classical Mixtape starts with Saint-Saens taking us on a trip to Lisbon, followed by music by Brahms, Paganini and Haydn. Polyphony sings one of Lauridsen's Chansons des Roses, then Traditional Peruvian music leads to a Scarlatti sonata, and the sequence ends with the glorious sounds of the 12 Cellists of the Berlin Philharmonic playing Burt Bacharach's South American Getaway.
