    Classical Wind Down

    Music to help you destress and find calm.

From the intimate worlds of Lili Boulanger, Arnold Bax, and Leoš Janáček to the suspended tones of Harold Budd, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and Masakatsu Takagi, the programme unfolds in a slow, reflective arc. Contemporary composers including Delphine Dora, Christina Vantzou, and Jerome Ellis bring a soft, exploratory edge, where melody dissolves into atmosphere. A quiet, continuous flow, designed to steady attention and soften the day. To listen on most smart speakers, just 'ask BBC Sounds to play Piano Focus'. Produced by Áine Devaney A Reduced Listening Production for BBC Radio 3 Unwind.
