Looking back at Monday's playlist I see no Cornish music there, so no reference to St Piran's Day. The Squire was not in the studio driving seat so Cornwall ignored yet again - what a London-centric station it is, largely!

Riveting.
Not.
Given the theme/focus of this weekend's output it is inevitable that there will be more chat - how much of the verbalising is of value is another matter.
I rather like the weekly bird recordings and waiting to hear what music will follow them.

Originally posted by french frank View PostNo one would deny (I imagine) that individual items are respectable - even very welcome. But the package, Lord Gould, the package:
Johann Strauss II Voices of Spring (at least they've stopped calling him Johann Sebastian Strauss)
JS Bach BWV 974 (one movement) played by your uncle
Fast forward to RVW Serenade to Music (oops, surely some mistake - it looks like the whole thing; still under 15 minutes)
A couple of Geordie songs, because we're in Gateshead
Fast backward to Telemann
Bizet, Rautavaara, Schubert D899/3, Waxman (ooh, Carmen Fantasy - nice), another bit of another Bach, Britten, another bit of folk followed by Wolfgang Amadeus, triumphantly topped by B Herrman's North byNortheastNorthwest
I can't be the only person, surely, who can't cope with this, I think the phrase is pot pourri - with the emphasis on the pourri. I don't understand the point of listening to it.
[Huge apology for 'slagging off' the damn programme again)
