In Tune's classical music mixtape: an imaginative, eclectic mix featuring classical favourites and lesser-known gems by Purcell, Korngold, Chopin, Barbara, Grieg and Mompou.
In Tune's classical music mixtape: an imaginative, eclectic mix featuring classical favourites, lesser-known gems and a few surprises thrown in for good measure. With a piano scherzo by Chopin that Schumann compared to a Byronic poem, "so overflowing with tenderness, boldness, love and contempt". Purcell's call to 'sound the trumpet' is answered by Tine Thing Helseth in Korngold and French chanson singer Barbara protests against the death penalty with wry wit. Plus, dances from Grieg and Federico Mompou.
