A perfect classical Sunday mix
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you’re getting out into the fresh air or taking it easy indoors.
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.
This morning, Lisa Batiashvili delights in a Beethoven violin concerto that’s full of joy, and there's a playful Prelude and Toccata from Fanny Mendelssohn.
Sarah also chooses a recording by Sir Simon Rattle and the Berlin Philharmonic, who discover the gentle side of Brahms, while the music of Argentine composer Gustavo Santaolalla is brought to life with a transfixing performance from the Aquarelle Guitar Quartet.
Plus, the English Chamber Orchestra scale Rossini's silken ladder...
