    Composed on ClassicFM

    Do NOT waste your time. It does not support gapless playback which for classical music, especially opera, is a nonsense. I can't believe how stupid these people are.

    I assume you mean Composed on Classic FM ?

    Don't think I would have been tempted

    It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

      I did but think there is something wrong with your link. I'm always interested in trying new things but the sheer stupidity of launching this half-baked system leaves me speechless. Just tried listening to a few other works that are broken up into distinct tracks on a CD (which most playback normally and without gaps). Not so this daft offering from ClassicFM.

        Classic FM being distinct from Radio 3. Good for them. I’d leave them alone and let them get on with it.

          I HATE 'mood playlists'. TOTALLY CRASS! Really puts me in a bad mood.

          Great clip of Much Dudamel, though.

            I know, I know, and the blighters are everywhere, Anastasius ...

            Still I tend to go along with doversoul though, sadly, the distinction between R3 and CFM is not quite as obvious as it once was. And CFM was never really aimed at the serious 'classical' listener, in any case?

            Tbh, I normally listen to music now by exploring YouTube and then downloading what takes my fancy. Any initial adverts are easily avoided or destroyed later. And all for free plus no inane chatter from presenters.

            Marvellous!

              Now that's a compilation of 'bleeding chunks' we aren't likely to hear on CFM
