This type of angle means that the magazine verges on the women’s magazine / ... more  ... supermarket magazine kind of territory at time. Just going back to the plugging of Classic fm radio... although expected, is one of the main faults of the magazine – one of the most annoying things about it for me, at any rate. It means that there’s a 2-page section which is unashamedly promoting their programmes. A page entitled “What’s on” is only about Classic Fm – making it incomplete. A following page, on the highlights is similarly restricting. So, nothing on, and no highlights on Radi...more |

Classic FM Magazine: fm - Fairly Mediocre (619 words)

Classic FM magazine is, as you might imagine, connected to Classic FM, the radio station. Along with BBC Music magazine (produced by he BBC – again, as I’m sure you can tell!) these two titles are the most popular, and most easily available monthly classical music magazines. Class FM always has a goodlooking, glossy cover, with stars of classical music (often female) flatteringly photographed and presented against a white background – not quite Harpers, but very classy nonetheless.

I've only read this one a few times, and I'm in two minds about it. On the one hand it does seem to have a rather high percentage of actual content to ads and other garbage.

At a cost of 3.75 (cheaper by subscription), Classic FM is a fairly average classical music magazine, both in terms of content and price.

The quality of the CD is normally fairly high, and makes up for the fairly shallow level of the magazine's content. Regular features include reviews of releases, interviews and news, plus upcoming programming on the radio station. All in all, the magazine is nothing special, but for someone new to classical music the CDs provide a cheap way to build up a collection. ...
