Sarah Walker with a festive musical mix

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning and puts a musical spin on the season.

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of attractive and uplifting music to complement your morning, and puts a musical spin on the season.

Sarah finds fresh takes on familiar seasonal tunes, from Buxtehude鈥檚 delicate organ rework of a Christmas classic, to the traditional and rousing sound of the Boar鈥檚 Head carol...

At 10.30 as part of Radio 3's Light in the Darkness season, Sarah explores a poem that draws parallels between a cat鈥檚 eyes and moonlight and we hear it read by M谩ir茅ad Tyers, an actor new to Radio 3.

She also plays the winning song from this year鈥檚 麻豆约拍 Radio 3 Carol Competition and ends the morning with a sparkling ballet classic.
