‘Tragedy of KUSC’
- Share via
KFAC’s demise is difficult for classical music lovers to endure; the continuing tragedy of KUSC is even more difficult for us.
KUSC seems to have decided to enlarge its format by appealing to a broader audience. It now features a program of Viennese waltzes, expansion of the news service to be highly redundant, artsy programs of little merit, and professional lecturers who would love to educate the listeners to the highlights of the third movement of whatever symphony.
Music lovers implore KUSC’s board of directors to return to a largely mature classical format, omitting such programs. Short of this happening, the listening base of KUSC will surely be eroded.
