Sarah's guest this week is the writer Jeanette Winterson, whose semi-autobiographical 'Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit' won the Whitbread Award for a first novel in 1985. Since then her writing has been praised for its startling originality in books about humanoid robots, witches, time travel, quantum physics, and above all the search for love. Her latest book is the first in a series of 'covers' of Shakespeare plays - a modern take on The Winter's Tale. Jeanette will be sharing a selection of her favourite classical music, including works by Handel, Gluck, Adams and Barber, every day at 10am.

Sarah places Music in Time. The focus is on a Modern work, the first Chamber Symphony by Schoenberg, whose sparse forces and new approach to harmony shocked its first audience in Vienna.

Sarah's Artists of the Week are the Ensemble Wien-Berlin. This esteemed wind quintet was formed in 1983 when five musicians, mostly principal players with the Vienna and Berlin Philharmonic orchestras, decided to join forces. The group has since built up an international reputation, performing at some of the most prestigious venues in the world and collaborating with string players and pianists to widen their repertoire. Throughout the week Sarah showcases some favourites from their catalogue of recordings, with works by composers including Mozart, Spohr and Debussy.
