Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, including works by Rodrigo Martinez, Monteverdi, Bernstein, Caccini and Schubert.

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

Sarah begins with beguiling harmony from Rodrigo Martinez, continues with some curious chromaticism with Monteverdi and The Sixteen and ends with Leonard Bernstein鈥檚 life affirming operetta, Candide.

She also takes us to an idyllic spot in Suffolk before dancing in Italy with Francesca Caccini.

Plus, an unpredictable and little known piano sonata by Schubert.
