Kate Molleson with a reflective musical mix

Kate Molleson sits in for Sarah Walker and chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Kate Molleson sits in for Sarah Walker and chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Kate starts with the spellbinding sound of Nadine Koutcher’s voice and a gloriously understated, but emotional aria by the French baroque master Rameau. Rich string sounds feature across the morning, from the Nash Ensemble playing a sextet by Brahms to the delicacy of Ola Backstrom’s Swedish fiddle and Alice Coltraine’s laid-back harp.

And there’s energy too as Richard Egarr directs from the organ (in his quirkily unique way) a Concerto Grosso by Handel, and Hector Berlioz dazzles in one of his most colourful overtures.
