Have you ever heard a piece of music so beautiful it stops you in your tracks? Or wanted to discover more about classical music but had no idea where to begin?
Classical music has a reputation for being difficult to understand and inaccessible to those who aren't already 'in the know'. Writer, broadcaster and musician Clemency Burton-Hill believes everyone should feel welcome at the classical party. Now her deep love for the art form and desire to share its diverse wonders has inspired her to curate this unique and eclectic treasury.
Year of Wonder presents 366 works from the medieval era to the present. Like a regular dose of meditation or mindfulness, a daily encounter with such music might just nourish and enrich your life in unexpected ways - whoever you are, wherever you're from.
