Sarah Walker chooses two and a half hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you鈥檙e preparing for a summer lunch or heading into the outdoors.

Sarah Walker chooses two and a half hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Sarah explores a variety of different musical landscapes today, from the sunlit Mediterranean captured in sparkling percussion by Nikolai Rimsky Korsakov, to the mysterious sonorities of Arnold Bax鈥檚 Into the Twilight.

There are also two explorations of birdsong and the natural world - with Amy Beach鈥檚 piece Hermit Thrush, and the traditional Scottish tune Echo Mocks the Corncrake, sung by Karine Polwart.

Plus, the Gould Piano Trio brings brilliant clarity to the Scherzo from Leokadiya Kashperova鈥檚 Piano Trio in A minor.
