        Don't give in to pseudo-pedantic bullying so easily, Radio64. I thought you were made of sterner stuff.

            Tease.
            I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

            I am not a number, I am a free man.

              Come to think of it, I concur - but musics still grates!

                Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                    The trouble is, on the BBC there rarely is any music coming up on the telly. And if I were to say that, recently, I've been enjoying complete Mahler symphonies with the Concertgebouw (various conductors), complete Shostakovich symphonies and concertos (Mariinsky/Gergiev/Salle Pleyel), lots of Beethoven string quartets by the Belcea from Vienna and lots more besides, it just results in a load of stuff about the evils of Sky. Just today, Sky Arts 1 offers Celtic Connections, programmes about Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Greenwich Village music....and on Sky Arts 2 there's Belcea/Beethoven (OK, again), a programme about Colin Davis, a Miriam Makeba concert, Lang Lang, etc. etc. Tomorrow - Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, David Bowie, Tchaikovsky Pique Dame......But nobody wants to know, or they already do because they look at Radio Times.

                      I agree. It would not have been my choice of usage but I am not upset by it and it was unnecessary to change the title - especially to something meaningless. Also, I would not be inclined to impose my linguistic prejudices on other board members by censoring their grammar.

                        Skates over some ideas a bit too quickly - and one of those "just listen to Bessie Smith sing" (well, we would, except you started talking over her after the first bar) moments - but Neil Brand is an excellent writer, Musician and speaker. (Cut his teeth accompanying silent films at the Eastbourne Film Soc in the '80s - including the unabridged six-hour Abel Gance Napoleon: improvising as he watched, IIRC. Talented bloke.)
