A journey to Vaughan Williams' Lark Ascending

As part of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Mental Health & Wellbeing Season, Sara Mohr-Pietsch is your guide on a journey towards a serenely beautiful classical favourite: Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending

As part of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Mental Health & Wellbeing Season, Sara Mohr-Pietsch is your guide on a journey towards a serenely beautiful classical favourite: Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending.

Along the way, Sara will find inspiration from birds in the music of Mozart, Schumann, Rameau and Einojuhani Rautavaara; she also explores music expressing consolation in pieces by John Dowland and Cecile Chaminade, and music which invokes a sense of calm by Massenet and Pauline Oliveros.

To listen to this programme (using most smart speakers), just say: "Ask ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds to play Music Map."
