Sarah Walker with a stirring musical mix
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, including works by George Gershwin, Ola Gjeilo and Clemence de Grandval.
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.
Today, Sarah takes us back in time to the sound of the 1st century with a replica of an ancient Greek lyre, heads to the Caribbean in the percussive sway of Gershwin’s Cuban Overture, and finds herself on an Alaskan mountain in Ola Gjeilo’s choral piece, Second Eve.
She also plays a piece for horn that provides delicate and graceful lines for the instrument, and enjoys a tender romance by composer Clemence de Grandval.
Plus, there’s some detective work in search of a catchy unknown tune…
