CLASSICAL REQUEST SESSION
Sir,-I have frequently listened to the excellent Listeners’ Classical Request Programme broadcast on Friday evening from 1ZM, and I may say, have never tuned in without hearing at least two works of which I am particularly fond. Unfortunately, however, on all but the more powerful sets, 1ZM presents some reception difficulties, and as a result I have often had to miss a favourite work owing to the poor reception. No doubt other listeners have had a similar disappointment. I am certain that there are sufficient music lovers in the Wellington district to warrant the institution of a similar two-hour programme at a station such as 2YC. At present the Wellington music lover has the misfortune of being flooded with the so-called "popular" programme or having to take what he is given in the way of classical music. So, I am sure I am not on my own when I say a Listeners’ Classical Request Session would not go unappreciated.
