Sarah Walker with an invigorating musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning and puts a musical spin on events.

Sarah begins with an early birthday tribute to Mozart, encourages the characterful tones of the bass clarinet to emerge in On the Trail by the American composer Ferde Grofé, and then lines up a piece with a French/African vibe from top jazz bass clarinettist Louis Sclavis.

Plus two leading classical guitarists get together in a dreamy melody by Granados and Robin Blaze sings one of Handel’s most sublime arias.

And to help celebrate the 20th anniversary of ѿý Radio 3’s New Generation Artists scheme, Sarah will showcase the talents of three alumni: cellist Danjulo Ishizaka, pianist Francois-Frederic Guy and mezzo-soprano Kathryn Rudge.
