Your daily classical soundtrack

From Serbia folk song to Sephardic Jewish music in Baroque Italy, tonight's Mixtape wanders the path less travelled, but in half an hour of uninterrupted music there's still time to call in on some familiar favourites, from Handel's 'Messiah' to Mozart's 'Haffner' Symphony.
