    Real 3beebies this morning. Roger Quliter's Children's Overture was not only played but done as a local-radio-style dedication.

    My reference to 'Dim Sum' was meant to be taken more as a play on words, implying that R3's morning output doesn't make much sense when you add it all up...

    Just to show I am a fair-minded sort of chap, I'd just mention that I heard a whiff of Byrd consort music on Essential Classics (Classics Lite?) and, a little later on, the Sanctus and Benedictus from Palestrina's Missa Papae Marcelli. I wonder if that had anything to do with Starkey's input to the programme? Missed the great mind himself, unfortunately.

    Quilter's Children's Overture is a finely crafted work, and should not be dragged down simply because of the dummed-down DJ approach now so nausiatingly present on R3.

    Likewise, Victor Hely-Hutchinson's 'Carol Symphony' which is bound to appear soon. A clever and once popular work.

    It is in the sense of its orchestration...not quite sure I agree about the way the medley hangs together. Its relevance for today's kids is limited as most of the tunes are unknown to them. It rather smacks of something a maiden aunt might play thinking it was cool. My main point, however was the 'dedication'. Are we going to get, "Now Sharon from Sheffield has asked us to play something for her boyfriend Tyler who is taking his NVQ level one in hairdressing today, so here is a track from Scheherezade...."

    Oh, stop me, somebody.
