This week's programme has  a bit of a new age feel to it. There is some electronica from Ani Williams - her invocation to Hathor, and Jessita Reyes playing native American flute in her composition Early Morning. 

We have some slightly more conventional but very beautiful solo classical guitar from Jim Perkins and a duet for flute and cello by another contemporary composer, Yoel Reza Afhami.

There is also a string quartet by Haydn, a long piece by Dvorák, and two Scriabin piano preludes to balance things out.
