Sarah Walker with guest Gary Raymond

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, and at 10.30am Gary Raymond joins her from Cardiff for a monthly arts round-up.

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

Today Sarah heads to the Italian Baroque for sounds of dogs, cats and chickens played on violins, finds monastic music by Tomás Luis de Victoria blossoming in a performance by Hesperion XX, and encounters the spirit of Norwegian dance with composer Johan Halvorsen.

Plus, a ‘walking tune’ to get you in the mood for a spring stroll…

At 10.30am Sarah invites novelist and broadcaster Gary Raymond to join her from Cardiff for the Sunday Morning monthly arts round-up, focusing on five cultural happenings around the UK that you can catch either online or in person during March.
