Sarah Walker with an enchanting musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you’re getting ready for a roast dinner or heading into the outdoors.

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

Sarah enjoys some contrasting pieces on the piano today: from a glittering sonata by Spanish composer Antonio Soler, to a lilting romance by Clara Schumann, and a sweeping étude based on George Gershwin’s Embraceable You.

She also plays Joseph Bologne’s Symphonie Concertante for two violins and orchestra (in all its glorious courtly glamour!), and soprano Sonya Yoncheva gracefully weaves Orlando Gibbons’s threads of melody in The Silver Swan.

Plus, a harpsichord concerto by JS Bach is the perfect accompaniment to a sunny day.
