A specially curated sequence of some of Sir David Attenborough's favourite music tracks, as part of the BBC's celebration of Attenborough's 100th birthday today. The sequence includes tracks that Attenborough loved and took with him to listen to on his many trips across the world making nature series, including the poignant trio from Mozart's Cosi fan tutte, the aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations, and a traditional Paraguyan song played on the harp, the Bell Bird. Also in the mix, a couple of short introductions from Attenborough himself, and some atmospheric soundtrack music from his nature programmes. Produced by Dominic Wells. To listen on most smart speakers, just say 'Ask BBC Sounds to play Radio 3'.
