Sarah Walker with a vibrant musical mix
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you’re joining for the first time or you’re a weekly listener.
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.
Today Sarah celebrates the start of May with a familiar serenade to the month from the King’s Singers, and Esperanza Spalding performs a bossa nova that’s perfect for the season.
There’s also a glittering symphony by Luigi Boccherini that will transport you to a polished ballroom floor, and there’s delicacy and passion in Richard Strauss’s String Quartet in A major.
Plus, Gregorio Allegri’s Miserere lifts us skywards…
