Sara Mohr-Pietsch presents her selection of choral favourites and new discoveries for Sunday afternoon

In today鈥檚 programme we hear J.S. Bach at his most jubilant in music he wrote to celebrate the spiritual awakening of Christ鈥檚 followers, anointed with tongues of holy fire. Gabriel Faur茅 conjures a nightmarish swarm of vampires, dragons and infernal genies in his choral poem, Les Djinns, and we鈥檙e invited to join some boisterous feast day celebrations in rural Bohemia courtesy of Anton铆n Dvo艡谩k.
