Sarah Walker with an engrossing musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your May Day morning, rain or shine.

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

Today, Sarah merrily heads into May with a piano piece inspired by clowning, a rigorous sinfonia by Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach and the clear sonorous voice of Doris Day.

She also plays the only piece Mozart wrote for the harp, and enjoys Debussy鈥檚 take on a popular Scottish tune.

Plus, The King鈥檚 Singers serenade the month ahead.
