Sarah Walker with an invigorating musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music, including works by Haydn, Benny Goodman and Delibes.

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

Sarah starts the morning with an agile miniature for piano and finds a sense of balance in Haydn. She also discovers an intriguing dance from 14th century Italy - an Istanpitta - and celebrates the birth of swing with Benny Goodman.

Plus, an eerie tale about someone falling love with a doll in Delibes’s ballet Coppelia.
