When I listen to a Philip Glass piano piece, I'm listening to classical
music IMHO.

One of the best orchestral concerts I've been to was at Cambridge Corn
Exchange in 2000, when the Britten Sinfonia played a concert of pieces by
John Adams and Frank Zappa.

Definitely a good fit in the Contemporary Classical category.

Billy Joel's album _Fantasies & Delusions_ is a collection of
classical compositions for solo piano. It was released on the
Sony Classical label. A nice touch was the way the album cover
adopted the look of the sheet music publications of G. Schirmer, Inc.

Come to Germany and you'll see how enormously grateful I am for
the BBC. Whatever do you have in mind, that could be even
comparable to them?

I sympathise. In continental Europe on FM the only classical
music radio was re-broadcasts for Radio 3 concerts and nothing in
Germany

Don't quite understand what your getting at here are you saying
theres no classic stations in Germany or ones worth listening to?

No, I am saying that I found none on FM radio while driving from
Dunquerque to Koblenz..after Aachen.
