Sarah Walker brings you three hours of classical music to reflect, restore, and refresh. On today's show, Sarah soundtracks your Sunday morning with a range of treats, including Beethoven's complete Moonlight Sonata by the legend Alfred Brendel; another chance to hear part of the Brentano String Quartet's performance last Monday from London's Wigmore Hall; and another Sunday Sequence - 3 pieces of music in a row all with a common link - this one inspired by composer and astronomer William Herschel. Sarah's choral reflection this week features Mozart's much-loved setting of Ave Verum Corpus in a recording by the Handel & Haydn Society conducted by Harry Christophers, and we pay a visit to Anton Lyadov's fairytale Enchanted Lake. Also, glorious Haydn recorded live at the Wigmore Hall... A Tandem Production for BBC Radio 3.
