My favourite... English Idylls
This week Sarah chooses a selection of pieces that are perfect for summer - English Idylls. Usually inspired by landscape or folk traditions, they tend to be a wistful and melodic reflection of pastoral or rural life. Sarah has lined up a selection of some of the best, by composers including Arnold Bax, George Butterworth, Gustav Holst, Percy Grainger and Frederic Delius.

10am
Sarah's guest is the actress Sally Phillips. Famous for her roles in Miranda, the Bridget Jones films and Clare in the Community and Talking to Strangers on Radio 4, Sally will be sharing a selection of her favourite classical music including works which recall her upbringing in the Middle East and pieces which she discovered from playing the flute, including works by Saint-Sa毛ns, Smetana, Rachmaninov and Cecile Chaminade. Sally is Sarah's guest every day at 10am.
10.30am
Music in Time: Renaissance
Sarah places Music in Time. Today we scroll back to the Renaissance and the time of Elizabeth I, when puritanism was a major religious force. Thomas Tallis reflected this in music such as the collection of nine Tunes for Archbishop Parker's Psalter. These hymns, written in a pared-down style were considered particularly appropriate for religious worship.
10.45am
Sarah's Proms artist of the day is the French piano virtuoso Louis Lortie, who is performing music by Liszt, Poulenc and Faur茅 in today's Chamber Prom from the Cadogan Hall. This morning, Sarah features Lortie in the music of a fellow Frenchman, with whom he has become closely identified, Frederic Chopin.
