Sticking Out of My Back Pocket Playlist: Classical Arrangements

Summer is here in the northern hemisphere and whilst we’re enjoying the sun, it’s also a time in the UK to celebrate classical music as it’s Proms season. This annual celebration is a highlight for many, offering performances that showcase the incredible talent of musicians from around the globe. 

Our fascination with classical music doesn’t stop there; earlier this month, Classic FM played “Celebration. Andante” from Standing Stone and in this month’s ‘You Gave Me The Answer’ Q&A, Paul reveals if Mozart has ever influenced his compositions. You can check out the full Q&A here! This got us thinking, for July's playlist let’s delve into Paul’s classical arrangements. 

From the live brilliance of Liverpool Oratorio to orchestral Bridgerton-esque versions of fan favourites on Working Classical, we’ve curated a selection that highlights Paul’s classical compositions. We’ve also included the Bach-inspired “Blackbird” this time, performed in the backyard of Abbey Road on the recently released One Hand Clapping - Backyard Sessions. 

Let the timeless beauty of classical arrangements fill your day and listen to the playlist here!
