Sarah Walker with a restorative musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you're on the sofa or in the park.

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

Today Sarah reveals three very different faces of baroque music - a rousing chorus by Handel, an exploratory organ fantasy by JS Bach and a perky recorder sonata by Benedetto Marcello. She also discovers music by Arnold Bax which tells the story of a walk in a haunted woodland, and enjoys a dreamy piece by saxophonist John Harle.

Plus, we join Gershwin as he takes his dog for a walk...
