The perfect classical half hour
Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical favourites, including music by Brahms, Chaminade and Mahler.
An engaging mix of classical music for half an hour, featuring George Gershwin’s iconic summertime lullaby from Porgy and Bess, Cecile Chaminade’s setting of Ronsard’s poetic evocation of youthful pleasures and the passage of time, and the haunting purgatorio vignette from Mahler’s tenth symphony, penned during a period of personal crisis for the composer.
