Farewells. Music for Partings, Journeys & Goodbyes.

This episode of Classical For Everyone includes musicians slowly leaving the stage… lovers separated by the call of duty…  music for beginning a journey…  and music for a sad and very final farewell. A section of a symphony by Josef Haydn, eight minutes of a Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart opera, a Felix Mendelssohn overture, maybe one of the saddest farewells ever written… from Henry Purcell, and the Adagio For Strings by Samuel Barber.
