Your perfect Sunday soundtrack

Sarah Walker with two hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, whether you鈥檙e out making the most of the August weather or enjoying a quiet lie-in.

Sarah Walker with two hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh.

Today, lutenist Paul O鈥橠ette ushers in the morning with a gently wistful melody from John Dowland, the Britten Sinfonia play one of Elgar's most charming works for orchestra and Madeleine Dring takes us on a trip to Southern Italy.

Sarah also chooses music from Polish composer Hania Rani, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra turn to one of Bach鈥檚 most comforting chorales.

Plus, Debussy explores the movement of the ocean鈥
