A classical Sunday selection
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you鈥檙e relaxing with a mug of tea or taking the dog for a walk.
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.
Today, Sarah shares a symphonic poem by Ernst Chausson that mixes high drama with lyrical calm, while pianist Andras Schiff makes Mozart dance across the keys.
There鈥檚 also a haunting combination of choir and harp from Roxanna Panufnik, while the Choir of The Queen鈥檚 College, Oxford, perform a glorious setting of a Basque carol.
Plus, harpist Ashley Jackson arranges Samuel Coleridge-Taylor鈥檚 sweeping melodies for her own instrument.
