Sarah Walker with an intriguing musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning and puts a musical spin on events.

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, and puts a musical spin on events.

Sarah embraces some thrillingly atmospheric darkness in Cherubini鈥檚 Overture to his opera D茅mophoon, but on the lighter side she peppers the morning with Richard Rodney Bennett鈥檚 Four Piece Suite, relaxing and uplifting in equal measure.

She finds energy and sensitivity in Tine Thing Helseth鈥檚 performance of Haydn鈥檚 Trumpet Concerto in E flat, and a sense of magic in a Bach Flute Sonata arranged for recorder, harpsichord and cello.

Plus a few film favourites, on the day of the Oscars. Sarah chooses a pair of pieces by Michael Nyman, and music which is the epitome of Hollywood glamour - Everything鈥檚 Coming Up Roses by Jule Styne.
