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

Today, there are searing harmonic suspensions in a concerto by Evaristo Felice dall鈥橝baco, mysterious overlapping chords in Messiaen鈥檚 鈥楾he Dove鈥, and winding melodies in Nishlyn Ramanna鈥檚 track N3 East.

There are also musical conversations in Baroque composer Isabella Leonarda鈥檚 'Purple Flowers', and Leonard Bernstein鈥檚 鈥楲onely Town鈥 from On the Town soars with nostalgia.

Plus, a piece by Dmitry Kabalevsky that takes Sarah back to her student days as a pianist鈥
