A classical selection to take anywhere

Half an hour of classical music, lesser known and well known, with a few surprises thrown in. Today, music from a passing parade in Madrid, and from a well-known heist movie, sits alongside Bach on marimbas, echoing trumpets from the French baroque, and an exquisite choral miniature from Bruckner.
