Sarah Walker with a rare musical mix
Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.
Sarah starts the morning with a scurrying scherzo that pools the talents of Russian composers Mussorgsky and Rimsky-Korsakov and finds a group who like to mix string quartets by Joseph Haydn with traditional Scottish music.
Plus violinist Itzhak Perlman joins André Previn in a celebrated performance of a favourite piece of ragtime.
