Three Hours of Classical Sparkle

Join Sarah Walker for three hours of classical masterpieces, perfect for a peaceful start to your day.

Sarah Walker brings you three hours of classical music to reflect, restore, and refresh.

On today's show Sarah has lots of treats for your Sunday morning, with music ranging from neglected but brilliant women composers like Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre and Maddalena Laura Sirmen, to the dreamy, mystical opening of Debussy's La damoiselle elue, and the chance to indulge in the epic first movement of Elgar's First Symphony.

This week's choral reflection is a lush recording by Voces8 of a triple canon by Baroque Italian composer Benedetto Marcello, and Sarah's Sunday Sequence has a distinctly regal feel to it...

Plus, Claudio Abbado and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe are clock watching...
