Your perfect Sunday soundtrack
Linton Stephens with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, whether you’re heading out for a Sunday stroll or ferrying the kids to football.
Linton Stephens with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh.
Today Linton conjures up a rich tapestry of sound that includes a bold and evocative work that captures the spirit of the sea from Ethel Smyth, a meditative trip down the Amazon river in the company of Philip Glass, and the elegance of a Mozart Piano Concerto.
There’ll also be innovative and captivating sounds from Meredith Monk, Julia Perry and Duston Schulze, as well as sweeping symphonic melodies from Jean Sibelius and Vasily Kalinnikov.
Plus, a quick trip to the stars courtesy of John Williams…
