Your perfect Sunday soundtrack

Sarah Walker chooses three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, whether you’re heading out for a stroll or catching up with friends.

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

In today’s programme, Bernard Haitink celebrates the lyricism of Brahms, Caroline Shaw plays with the endless variety of the human voice, and kora player Seckou Keita tugs at the heartstrings in a recording with the ±«Óătv Concert Orchestra.

Sarah also chooses music from soprano Barbara Bonney, who perfects the art of musical storytelling in a Clara Schumann lieder, while Giovanni Bottesini puts the double bass in the spotlight.

Plus, a symphony from one of Mozart’s forgotten protegees
