My favourite... 18th century overtures. Sarah shares a selection of her favourite overtures. These were designed to settle a restive audience and prepare them for an opera, or to open concerts or grand celebrations. Sarah's featured works include operatic overtures by Mozart and his rival Antonio Salieri, as well as instrumental pieces by Josef Myslivecek and by Handel - music that accompanied the firework display in London's Green Park in 1749 marking the end of the War of Austrian Succession.

Sarah's guest is the celebrated film director Ken Loach. Ken's films include Cathy Come 成人快手, whose powerful message helped to change the law on homelessness when it was first broadcast in 1966, as well as Kes, My Name is Joe and Sweet Sixteen. His work across television and film has won him awards including the BAFTA Fellowship and two Palme d'Ors for his 2006 film The Wind That Shakes The Barley, and for his most recent film, I, Daniel Blake, which tackles unemployment and poverty in Britain today. Ken talks about his directing career and his favourite pieces of classical music throughout the week, including music by Canteloube, Brahms and Haydn, who Ken insists is the best composer to get dressed to in the morning.

Music in Time: Baroque
Sarah places Music in Time as she dives into the Baroque era - when rigorous theory and tender expression could exist side by side, as heard in Rameau's Entr茅e de Polymnie from his tragedie-lyrique 'Les Boreades'.

Sarah's Artists of the Week are the Netherlands Chamber Choir. Founded in 1937, the Nederlands Kamerkoor has developed a worldwide reputation for its innovative commissions and collaborations, which include world premieres of works by John Tavener, James MacMillan and Harrison Birtwistle. The choir regularly performs with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, the Orchestra of the 18th Century under Frans Bruggen and The Sch枚nberg Ensemble, and have released a steady stream of award winning recordings. Sarah dips into the choir's archive throughout the week, sharing interpretations of music by the Dutch composer Sweelinck, as well as Rossini, Palestrina and Poulenc, a composer who wrote music especially for the choir.
