Radio France

France-Musiques



Without adhering systematically to the demagogic formula: \" the public is right always \", it is necessary for us well to agree that it is not always wrong: to hold account of its observations is least things on behalf of a radio of \" public \" service.Consequently, with two additional concerts diffused during the weekend, there are four hours more suggested to our listeners who will find - in addition - the appointments which them \" fidélisent \" throughout the week: this alternation of comments of sensitizing and information.The \" plural \" spirit of France Musiques will continue to appear by the opening of the chain to all the forms of expression: traditional musics, original film tapes, jazz, contemporary creations,etc. FranceMusique G2 20K Mono

Not sure, but I think it also includes a lesson on \"Say it in French if unsure, they\'ll understand anyway... or at least they should (ignorants!)\".

Certainly it deserves a mention:

\"good effort, buddy!!\"
