Sarah Walker with an intriguing musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Today, Sarah starts the morning with music by Bach, played on the mandolin, and enjoys an invigorating piece by Benjamin Britten, which she feels has been unfairly neglected.

She also finds interesting textures in music, from the glittering sound of the harpsichord in Franz Benda鈥檚 Flute Concerto, to an arrangement by Joseph Haydn of a traditional Welsh folk song, and a rich brass band version of Dvorak鈥檚 most famous slow movement.

Plus, some laid-back jazz that will transport you onto the night train鈥
