    "But just at the time when we need it most [this 2002], Radio 3 decides, for ideological reasons, to attack the integrity, vitality and variety of (in the widest sense) the domain of Classical Music in the search for popularization. It is high time Radio 3 took back its rightful position as a principal contributor to the musical life of this country and veered away from its seemingly ideocyncratic [sic, lovely!] and wayward by-paths of little interest in themselves and of even less effect."

    Might send this to Sam Jackson.

    Spot on & beautifully written (in both senses).
