8. Afternoon walk: Christmas Concerto, Corelli
The perfect soundtrack to a wintery walk, let the pastoral strains of the finale of Corelli's Christmas Concerto warm your heart. When the music was published in 1714, the Pastorale had associations with the holiday theme, so is marked as optional so the concerto could be performed throughout the year.
