Ian McMillan with an inspiring musical mix

Ian McMillan sits in for Sarah Walker and chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Writer and broadcaster Ian McMillan puts his Yorkshire puddings on hold to sit in for Sarah Walker, choosing three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Today Ian has chosen music to refresh the senses, including the gently rolling Seascapes for winds by Ruth Gipps, and Bix Beiderbecke鈥檚 meandering jazz piano solo - In a Mist.

There鈥檚 also Claude Debussy鈥檚 hauntingly descriptive Pr茅lude 脿 l'apr猫s-midi d'un faune, and a movement from Gabriel Faur茅鈥檚 final work, his searing String Quartet.

Plus, the prelude from the TV series Poldark in a sensitive performance by the pianist Lang Lang.
