SUNDAY MUSIC
Sir,-With so many fine programmes in a week it seems ill-natured to find fault. My grievance is not with the programmes but with their placing. Often there are two classical programmes at the same hour and it is difficult to select. As the son of early Victorian parents, I find some things at which to smile in their rather gloomy Sundays, but one thing has stuck, and that is, that there are six days in the week for business, dancing and comic songs. Let us make Sunday different from the rest of the week. Thanks to this idea, on Sundays we heard Haydn trios, a few simple symphonies, and many solos from the oratories. lf chamber and symphonic programmes were transferred to Sunday evening, it would double my enjoyment. To me the Sunday evening programmes are at present the poorest of the week.
