Gentle Classical

Dive into the serene expanse of classical music with the "Gentle Classical" playlist, a meticulously curated selection that invites you into a world of relaxation and introspection. This collection brings together a wealth of pieces renowned for their tranquil beauty, from the delicate touch of Amy Beach's "Dreaming, Op. 15 No. 3" to the introspective melodies of Chopin's "Nocturne No. 19 in E Minor, Op. 72, No. 1." Each track is a journey through lush soundscapes, with compositions that feature the soothing tones of the violin, piano, cello, and more.

The playlist isn't just about the heavyweight composers you might expect; it also introduces lesser-known gems that deserve their place in the sun, such as Vladimir Martynov's "Come in!", Movement II, and Luke Howard's "Dappled Light." Whether it's the timeless allure of Bach's "Goldberg Variations: Aria" or the contemporary echoes of Ólafur Arnalds and Alice Sara Ott's "Eyes Shut - Nocturne in C Minor," there's a breadth of sound that spans centuries yet feels timeless. Ideal for those evenings of reflection or mornings of calm preparation, "Gentle Classical" offers a backdrop that's both enriching and soothing.
