07/11/2007 Grown-Up Music Heaven on radio tonight
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a big fan of the BBC. Ninety nine per cent of its output, on TV and radio, leaves me cold. And I object to paying nearly £150 a year to finance it all. But even a stopped clock is right twice a day. And, for one hour tonight, BBC radio transforms itself into Grown-Up Music Heaven. At 2230, Radio 3 is broadcasting part three of its profile of the stupendous soprano, the divine Renee Fleming, one of the greatest living musicians. Follow that? Not easy, but at 2300 Radio 2 has a profile of Big Joe Turner, one of the most important (and enjoyable) pre-rock popular musicians. So, two of the biggest names in the grown-up musical firmament, one after the other. Magnifico. And you can listen online, as broadcast, and for seven days after. Gerry Smith
