Power through with classical music
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.
In tonight's In Tune Mixtape, we dance to the tunes of Beethoven and Johann Strauss II before a thieving magpie catches our ear, and dark flames of love dart from the eye of Dame Janet Baker singing Mahler. A clog dance and dazzling Norwegian folk dance conclude our sequence, and we start tonight in the equally dazzling Spanish sunshine.
