Cerys Matthews delves into the archives to present a specially curated mixtape of her favourite stories from across 25 series of the Â鶹ÊÓƵAV Radio 4's Soul Music.

Cerys's choices include:
* Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, Mozart's Requiem in D Minor
* Bob Marley's Redemption Song, Puccini's La Boheme
* Sam Cooke's A Change is Gonna Come.
Producer: Mair Bosworth
