BREAKFAST AND LUNCH MUSIC
Sir,-May I say that I appreciate very, much. the material we get in The Listener, and for the most part over the air, but I do wish very often that the music from the National stations at least could be of a slightly higher standard during the breakfast and lunch hour. For the busy housewife these are often the only times during the day she has a chance for casual listening. I have tried to be tolerant and say "some people like this,’ but I maintain that if you hear a thing often enough you start humming it-if you’ve an ear for ‘tune-so why not hum "Road to the Isles," or Schubert’s lovely tunes, instead of seasick stuff that so frequently spoils an otherwise enjoyable meal. I appreciate the difficult task of the programme arranger, but at the. same time, I want New Zealand to appreciate. all that is so lovely in the realm of music.
