Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning.

Sarah finds brightness in her musical choices this morning in brilliant harp writing by William Lawes and sparkling piano playing by Stephen Hough.

She also contrasts two very different impromptus, and enjoys the warm string textures created by composer William Grant Still.

Plus, an original take on the music of Hildegard of Bingen that might have you in a trance鈥
