Sarah Walker with an invigorating musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you鈥檙e relaxing in the garden or catching up on some work.

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

Today Sarah finds the music of Tchaikovsky sounding almost improvised under the fingers of violinist Gil Shaham, and is absorbed by the dramatic, visceral orchestration of Carl Orff.

She also admires the sparkling sound of winds and strings as they chat across the orchestra in the Scherzettino from C茅cile Chaminade鈥檚 ballet Callirho毛, and enjoys one of her favourite piano sonatas by Mozart.

Plus, Caroline Shaw transports us to the Cutting Garden of Dumbarton Oaks鈥
