Sarah Walker with three hours of classical music to reflect, restore and refresh, after the highs of last night鈥檚 triumphant Proms finale!

Sarah shares music by some of her favourite artists from this year鈥檚 Proms season, and reflects on the Last Night of the Proms. Her choices today include a range of music chosen to help revitalise you, including Haydn鈥檚 bubbly Trumpet Concerto, a luscious movement from a symphony by Rachmaninoff, and the opening of Beethoven鈥檚 mighty 鈥楨mperor鈥 Concerto. And today鈥檚 Choral Reflection takes her back to a spine tingling Prom from the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir.

Plus, devilish music from a landmark new release reissuing a classic recording from David Oistrakh鈥
