Canada3 months ago - Good but you might need a VPN
There's nothing in English that IMO competes with this but it is intended for transmission and use in the UK. I think that explains a lot of the poor ratings.
Record Review is similarly restricted.
If you have access you can use the back catalogue to survey composers by eras or by nationality etc.
Hope they cover some of the less well known romantic piano folk eg Moscheles in a themed episode ...oh and salieri .
Or why some folk famous in their day have slipped from view.
