Sarah Walker with a stirring musical mix

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

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

There’s plenty of music to stir the senses from lushly orchestrated Wagner, a quirky piano sonata by Haydn, sounds of the gamelan by Lou Harrison and smokin’ hot singing from Peggy Lee.

Sarah also travels down a long and winding road with guitarist Goran Sollscher and to the prairies of America with Aaron Copland’s collection of cowboy songs, all expertly woven into his ballet Billy the Kid.
