with the end of JL any pretense at analysis and review

I assure you Calum, whatever it may sound like, there has never been any pretence on my part. JL has been five and a bit years of a genuine attempt at both those things.

i believe you Alyn but my understanding is that you will now do JRR, GS will have his own 'presenter' show in the JL time slot and no more JL ..... so my despondency is for the future, not the past ... indeed the past of jazz on r3 is what makes the present and future so depressing

>>>as a matter of fact the whole approach of R6 to music would be well suited to R3 ..

Hang on Mr C. Don't get carried away !!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks AS for that link. I always wondered what that nice Mr Kurowski's job title was !

ANDREW KUROWSKI
Andrew Kurowski has been on the staff of BBC Radio since 1979, first as a sound-technician and as a member of
the music production department for Radio 3. His interests have always been dominated by new music: he studied
contemporary music and composition at Cambridge with Alexander Goehr, and is now responsible for the new
music output on Radio 3. This embraces not only programme output but also the management of the Network’s
new music commissions – including the BBC Orchestras and Singers and the BBC Proms. He also represents Radio
3 on matters of new music outside the BBC and for several years was chair of the International Society for
Contemporary Music, work which was brought to a head in the 1998 ISCM World Music Days in Manchester. In
his years as a Producer and Subsequently Editor in Radio 3’s music department, he has worked predominantly on
programmes devoted to new music: Music in our Time, Midnight Oil, Hear and Now, Between the Ears and most
recently Late Junction. In 1990 he devised and mounted the BBC’s Berio at the Barbican weekend, bringing new
and rare performances to the London stage. He also oversees the jazz and crossover output of Radio 3 including
Mixing It and Jazz Legends, Andy Kershaw and World Routes. Andrew is currently the Editor of the new and
specialist music in the London production department.
