Switch up your listening with classical music

Take time out with a 30-minute soundscape of classical favourites, including music by Chopin, Mozart, and Rheinberger.

An engaging mix of classical music for half an hour, featuring the horn concerto Mozart completed shortly after his opera The Marriage of Figaro, the Kyrie from Rheinberger鈥檚 mass for double choir - written in response to the conservative musical ideals of the Cecilian movement - and a setting of poetry by Crist贸bal de Castro by de Falla, depicting the intoxicating spell cast by a lover鈥檚 dark eyes.
