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.

Today, some uplifting carols within a setting of the magnificat by Hieronymus Praetorius, Christmas cosiness with Anne Sofie von Otter singing a song of a winter鈥檚 night, and a bright, balletic sinfonietta by Prokofiev.

At 10.30 as part of Radio 3's Light in the Darkness season Sarah explores a poem that glistens with winter light and we hear it read by Nnabiko Ejimofor, an actor new to Radio 3.

There鈥檒l also be musical poetry about some Irish fairies, plus Sarah ends the morning with a bang and a sparkle.
