A reflective classical selection for Sunday

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, whether you鈥檙e working through the weekend or recharging for the week ahead.

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

Today, soprano Angela Gheorghiu beguiles as Bizet鈥檚 Carmen, Salieri concocts a sinfonia full of bustling energy, and Australian composer Sally Whitwell sets her morning commute to music.

Elsewhere in the programme, pianist Florian Noack finds playful subtleties in Tielman Susato鈥檚 renaissance harmony, Julia Lezhneva and Philippe Jaroussky join forces to sing Pergolesi, and American composer Charles Griffes offers a tantalisingly delicate orchestral miniature.

Plus, Ravel whisks us off our feet...
