Three hours of Easter classical sparkle

Sunday Morning

Available for 29 days

Today, Sarah’s choices include Gregorian chant for Easter Day, a Cantata by JS Bach that celebrates the Resurrection with a flurry of jubilant voices, and a Hymn to Christ by Imogen Holst. There’s also a chance to hear the whole of Mozart’s Mass in C major, and today’s Choral Reflection is a balm of Renaissance harmony which gives the impression of being in surround sound… Also, this week’s Sunday Sequence heads around the globe to discover some Easter traditions - including the history of hunting for eggs… A Tandem Production for BBC Radio 3.
