Sarah Walker with an energising musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses two hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, including Handel, Prokofiev, Elgar, Barber, JS Bach and Nina Simone.

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

Sarah showcases the elegant playing of harpist Marisa Robles in a concerto by Handel, the verve of two pianists performing a famous gavotte by Prokofiev and the emotional power conjured up by Sir Georg Solti in Elgar鈥檚 vivid orchestral poem 鈥業n the South鈥�.

She also rediscovers a set of 20th-century 鈥榤adrigals鈥� by Samuel Barber, and finds another way to present the music of JS Bach - a Brandenburg Concerto movement played on cello, drone and tabla.

Plus, is marriage really 鈥榝or old folks鈥�? According to Nina Simone - yes!
