A 30-minute mix of delightful classical music

Mozart bookends some swooning Rachmaninov, an arrangement of Rossini, and Falaise by Floating Points in tonight's mix. Plus a Handel duet and Saharan Faris Amine Bottazzi.

Mozart bookends Rachmaninov's swooning Prelude in D from his Op.23, an arrangement of Rossini's Les Soirees musicales, and Falaise by Floating Points in tonight's Mix. First Michael Nyman's Jerry Lee Lewis-style homage to Don Giovanni, then the lofty soprano harmonising of Handel's De torrente in via bibet and the rolling rhythms of the Toureg Sahara by Faris Amine Bottazzi. And to close, a little Allegretto from Mozart's Sonata in B flat major, K.570.
