The whole reason that I would like a return to longer pieces than we have now is that I want 20-30 minutes to stay inside the sound world/style of one piece, not constantly to have a change, brutal or less so, every 6 or so minutes. But this is only to repeat why it is that I'm no longer a (regular) listener to the radio. Nick's flagging up of the Víkingur Ólafsson programme tempted me to listen to the first R3 programme for years. It struck me as fresh where most of the rest has become stale, same thing every day, same presenter, same format, just shuffle the snippets about to come up with a slightly different mix. Minimal imagination.
