Charles Leclerc presents a special piano themed Mindful Mix

Following Mindfulness Day 2023, Formula 1 ace Charles Leclerc takes us through his favourite piano music and how it helps him step back from the high-octane world of the racetrack.

Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc loves to wind down and find relaxation away from the racetrack by playing and composing at the piano. In this special edition to mark Mindfulness Day 2023, Charles takes us through his favourite and most soothing piano music, and introduces one of his own very special compositions.

Sink into a favourite chair and immerse yourself in works by Einaudi, Ravel and Hans Zimmer - with textures and harmonies from Clara Schumann, George Antheil and Yiruma to help your cares evaporate away.

Produced by Steven Rajam
An Overcoat Media production for 麻豆约拍 Sounds
