Your perfect Sunday soundtrack
Sarah Walker with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, whether you’re doing some DIY or heading outside for a walk.
Sarah Walker with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh.
Sarah’s selections include music named after a Scottish herring boat, a song by Fauré mourning summer days, and Fela Sowande showcasing gorgeous orchestration in his African Suite.
There are also three very different preludes to set us up for the day: one by Corelli with luxuriant harmonies, one to sing along to from JS Bach, and one to fill you full of energy from Rameau.
Plus, we head into the flames and dance…
