And I don't mean playing nothing but Brahms for the whole day, but some kind of real test to the limits of what radio can do? Classic FM never could stretch the boundaries, because it is the safety of the format and product that attracts many listeners.<br /><br />There are things I still enjoy on Radio 3, but the daytime is often a no-go zone of twee interviews and unthreatening greatest hits. Why should anyone equipped with curiosity and intelligence care about any of that?Andrew Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621999760260602982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-35366607235324431552013-08-01T15:38:34.088+01:002013-08-01T15:38:34.088+01:00More on these latest audience figures here - http...More on these latest audience figures here - http://www.overgrownpath.com/2013/08/radio-3-loses-14-of-its-audience-how.htmlPliablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616598845886342325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-17647120484728760712013-08-01T08:52:06.653+01:002013-08-01T08:52:06.653+01:00John, I agree with every word you say.

For me, there are simply too many hours a day when you do not know what music you are going to hear or whether you will be hearing complete works. The copying of Classic FM is futile.John Babbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01644931643748819987noreply@blogger.com
