... from the Radio Times today :
"Katherine Jenkins has always been an evangelist for classical music and the Welsh mezzo-soprano now brings her pitch-perfect proselytising to Classic FM for this new 12-part series. And she reckons her musical choices for this global exploration are ideal for both beginners and buffs: "These are the pieces of music I like to think of as essential classics. So, whether you're just getting into classical music or you're already a fan, I promise you the best, and the most beautiful, on a journey that will take us around the world and across the centuries." Future episodes focus on such diverse areas as film soundtracks, Russian music and opera but today she concentrates on the best of British, from Purcell to Britten, Elgar and Vaughan Williams to Maxwell Davies and Karl Jenkins."
Is there now any difference - any difference at all? - between the morning offerings of Radio Three and those of Classic FM??
