Katie Derham's handpicked classical mix for your mind
In Tune's classical music mixtape: an imaginative, eclectic mix featuring classical favourites to help soothe your soul.
Music for your Mind: handpicked classical recommendations to help soothe your soul.
In a week of specially curated episodes of In Tune Mixtapes for Mental Health Awareness Week, five of Radio 3鈥檚 best-known presenters share the music they鈥檝e turned to in times of trouble. Today, Katie Derham treats us to songs of melancholy from Brazil and the Auvergne, songs of innocence from William Blake, a rip-roaring curtain-raiser from Leonard Bernstein and a flight of swans disappearing into the solar haze like a silver ribbon from Sibelius.
