Sarah Walker with a far-reaching musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you鈥檙e a regular listener or you鈥檙e joining Sarah for the first time.

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

Today, on the first Sunday in spring, a string quartet plays Scottish folk melodies that ripple with excitement, Clara Schumann鈥檚 Konzertsatz in F minor builds tension with angular melodies and conversational orchestral writing, and Errolyn Wallen鈥檚 song 鈥楶eace on Earth鈥 journeys out of a cold winter towards warmth鈥

Sarah also finds a psalm setting by Felix Mendelssohn that will have you hooked, and there鈥檚 light-hearted Classical charisma in Joseph Bologne鈥檚 Symphony in G major.

Plus, the familiar and uplifting melodies of Mozart鈥檚 Symphony No.40 get us in the mood for the new season鈥
