Vocalist Nora Fischer with a mesmerising playlist

Singer Nora Fischer opens up a colourful selection of classical music from the inside - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Singer Nora Fischer remembers her experience as a child watching her father Ivan Fisher conduct a studio recording of Brahms鈥� Hungarian Dances. She goes on to convey the 鈥榗reepy intensity鈥� of the opening of Rachmaninov鈥檚 Second Piano Concerto and thrills to the ecstatic build-up of Steve Reich鈥檚 Tehillim.

Nora also brings the Italian baroque to the 21st century in two very different performances of the same song by Antonio Cesti.

At 2 o鈥檆lock Nora鈥檚 Must Listen piece features a group of voices doing all sorts of bizarre, beautiful and mesmerising things.

A series in which each week a musician reveals a selection of music - from the inside.
