Easter: A seasonal journey. Sarah Walker live from Pembrokeshire
For Easter Sunday, Sarah Walker is at St Non's Chapel in Pembrokeshire, just a few metres from the sea, with a programme exploring music, landscape, and spiritual pilgrimage.
For this bright Easter Sunday morning, Sarah Walker is broadcasting live from the beautifully atmospheric surroundings of St Non's Chapel in Pembrokeshire - said to be the 6th-century birthplace of the patron saint of Wales, St David - and just a few metres from the sea.
Sarah will be joined by special guests - harpist Mared Pugh-Evans, the current official harpist to His Majesty the King, and Welsh folk duo Filkin's Drift - for a programme exploring music, landscape, and spiritual pilgrimage. Sarah will also visit the stunning Pembrokeshire coast path, marvel at the 12th Century Cathedral of St David's and consult a local expert about the birds who nest in the eaves of St Non's.
Plus a range of glorious music for this Easter Sunday, celebrating the season, the Saints and the landscape around St Non's.
