The perfect classical half hour

In Tune's Classical Music Mixtape: an imaginative, eclectic mix featuring music by Lili Boulanger, Rachmaninov, Widor, Bob Chilcott and John Barry.

The wide open, spacious harmonies of James Bond composer John Barry feature in tonight's In Tune Mixtape, alongside the equally portentous writing of Lili Boulanger setting the words of Psalm 129. Sweetening the mood is a movement from one of Rachmaninov's lesser known piano concertos, a yearning love song by Bob Chilcott and Widor's famous Toccata for organ. The perfect half hour of relaxing classical music to usher in your evening.
