Since my book addresses not only their core repertoire but also, implicitly, has to do with why this music has current value, it should be of concern to them and their listeners. Books are reviewed on at least one of their weekly programmes - 'Music Matters', presented by TomService (whom I know reasonably well).BBC Radio 4The advantage of this over Radio 3 is it's heard by a wider audience. Since my book seeks to restore music to the wider history of modernity it should be of interest to those programmes that deal with broad issues of intellectual and cultural history as well as issues of current concern. Guardian NewspaperI have written for the Guardian in the past and it might be worth asking if they would consider a piece based on thecentral idea of the book.


My contact there was Imogen Tilden.Selling point: A new and wholly unique telling of music historySelling point: Examines music in terms of key categories of modernity: time, space, and languageSelling point: Argues that music offers specific insights into the nature of modernity.
