Monteverdi, Gardel, Chopin

In Tune's specially curated playlist: a mix of the sentimental to the sublime with a dose of tongue-in-cheek for good measure. With Debussy, Monteverdi, Durufle and Bernstein.

A bunch of surprises from In Tune's eclectic Mixtape: an evocative Debussy string quartet, outstanding basslines from Monteverdi's Vespers, a bubbling Chopin prelude, the sublime Agnus Dei from Duruflé's Requiem, plus an outing from William Walton's Facade together with classic Bernstein - and more besides!

Produced by Philip O'Meara.
