Your Perfect Sunday Soundtrack

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

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

Sarah's choices include Germaine Tailleferre's intriguing Choral for trumpet and piano featuring Raymond Mase, the dark and brooding opening movement of Antonin Dvorak's Cello Concerto, with Steven Isserlis in the spotlight and a stunning recording of Purcell's Sound the Trumpet, with Andreas Scholl joined by Christophe Dumaux.

There are also favourite melodies from Vaughan Williams, Rodrigo and Schubert, and Sarah's Choral Reflection is Bruckner's motet Christus Factus Est.
