Sarah Walker with guest Nick Ahad

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music and at 10.30am is joined by her guest Nick Ahad for a monthly arts roundup of events and activities.

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

Today, Sarah chooses music ranging from a passionate overture by Schubert, to a piece by Shara Wardon that explores the ways of the universe via violin and electronic keyboard…

Plus, Respighi’s orchestration creates a sparkling Italian atmosphere.

At 10.30am Sarah invites broadcaster and writer Nick Ahad to join her for the Sunday Morning monthly arts roundup, focusing on five cultural happenings that you can catch either online or in person during May.
