Half an hour of the finest classical music
Boccherini and Mendelssohn begin this mix, Debussy's other-worldly Syrinx and Eric Whitacre's heavenly Lux aurumque take us far away, and there's a fairy tale from Joyce DiDonato.
Decorous music by Boccherini and Mendelssohn begins this evening's eclectic mix. Debussy's other-worldly Syrinx and Eric Whitacre's heavenly Lux aurumque both take us somewhere far away, and there's a fairy tale from the inimitable mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato. Also including works by Mozart, Victor Ewald and William Walton.
