My favourite... early keyboard instruments. Sarah explores the variety of instruments with keyboards that composers wrote music for before the pianoforte came to prominence in the late 18th century. Sarah explores music for the harpsichord, fortepiano, chamber organ, virginals and spinet, by composers including Mozart, Rameau, Giles Farnaby, Martin Peerson and William Byrd.

Sarah places Music in Time as she travels back to the Romantic period to explore the rise of nationalism with the Mighty Handful and Rimsky-Korsakov's Russian Easter Festival Overture.

Sarah's artists of the week are the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. Founded in 1972 in New York by a group of musicians keen to marry the richness of the orchestral sound with the intimacy of a chamber ensemble, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra play without a conductor, preferring a collaborative partnership of musicians. They have since become recognised as one of the world's great ensembles. Throughout the week Sarah features their recordings of repertoire by composers ranging from Handel and Mozart to Bizet and Copland.
