The perfect classical half hour

An eclectic mix featuring classical favourites, lesser-known gems and a few surprises, including music by Charpentier, Joplin, Vanhal, Copland, Caroline Shaw and Frederick Loewe.

In today's In Tune Mixtape we hear Scott Joplin's Elite Syncopations played by a wind trio, the finale of Johan Baptist Vanhal's cello concerto, Copland's Fanfare for the Common Man and Caroline Shaw's And the Swallow. Andre Previn gives us his jazzy take on the Ascot Gavotte from My Fair Lady before the London Symphony Orchestra take on the baton with The Embassy Waltz from the same show. To kick things off there's a pastoral tribute to the Sun King by Charpentier.
