This is a new discovery for me - and it's deeply wonderful. Beethoven's late string quartet song of thanks: written as he recovered from severe illness, it's music that heals and restores our mind and soul.

Music here on Youtube, beautifully filmed and played by the Danish String Quartet. 

Or on Spotify with the fab Takacs Quartet.

Listening time: 31 mins (Podcast 12', music 17/19')
