A musical moment to press pause ft. Anoushka Shankar

Available for 321 days

There are some pieces of music that can make you feel like time has paused, which force you to stop in your tracks and take you away from your everyday life. Ólafur Arnalds plays a selection of time-related pieces that have that quality, including tracks from Hania Rani, Belle Chen and Hiroshi Yoshimura. Plus we’re transported to the musical safe haven of the musician Anoushka Shankar. Anoushka is drawn to music that either gives her a gut punch of emotion or a deep peace. She shares a very special track that brings her ultimate calm; a piece by her father, the Indian sitarist and composer Ravi Shankar. Produced by Kit Callin A Reduced Listening production for BBC Radio 3 and Radio 3 Unwind.
