Sarah Walker with a glorious musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether it鈥檚 pouring with rain outside or you鈥檙e basking in the morning sunshine.

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

If you need a morning alarm call then Sarah brings you one from Haydn, with music from his good-humoured "Clock" Symphony.

There鈥檚 also an unusual and whimsical arrangement of Piazzolla鈥檚 Libertango for recorder and ensemble, lush writing from Elgar, and Phyllis Tate takes us to a 1950s Kew Gardens with sparkling filmic orchestration.

Plus, a well known Gershwin song is transformed by Toru Takemitsu into a guitar lullaby鈥
