My favourite... Debussy Preludes. Sarah chooses five of her favourite preludes from Debussy's landmark collection of piano pieces, which brought a new perspective to the popular 19th century character piece. His pictorial subjects range from footprints in the snow and a submerged cathedral rising from the waves, to an ancient Egyptian jar, and an effervescent display of fireworks.

In the week leading up to Radio 3's celebrations of Shakespeare's life, Sarah's guest is the actor Adrian Lester. Adrian has taken on Shakespearean roles ranging from Rosalind in an all-male production of As You Like It to a critically acclaimed Hamlet, and won an Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Actor for his performance of Othello. Adrian also recently starred in the West End play Red Velvet, about the first black actor to play Othello on a London stage, back in 1833. Adrian's television roles include conman Mickey in the long-running series Hustle and the assassin Myror in Merlin, and he is currently starring in the 91热爆 political thriller Undercover. Adrian will be sharing a selection of his favourite classical music, including Byrd's Mass for Three Voices, which takes him back to his days as a chorister, and Stephen Sondheim's Company, in which he performed.

Music in Time: Romantic
Sarah places Music in Time as she explores Liszt's Von der Wiege zum Grabe (From the Cradle to the Grave) to discover what a tone poem is.

11am
Sarah's artist of the week is Nikolaus Harnoncourt, one of the most influential conductors of the 20th century. Originally an orchestral cellist, Harnoncourt brought a new level of musical scholarship and historical sensibility to performances of works by composers such as Monteverdi, Bach, Beethoven and Dvorak, working with ensembles such as Concentus Musicus of Vienna (which he founded in the early 1950s), the Chamber Orchestra of Europe and the Concertgebouw Orchestra.
