That's so true - there are so many great composers,
both past and present, who undeservedly go unheard. If anyone has the
chance, I strongly recommend tuning in to the web broadcast from Princeton
University's station WPRB ( http://www.wprb.com/ ) on Tuesdays from
6:00 to 11:00 AM EST for the program "Classical Discoveries" hosted by
the extremely knowledgeable and informative Marvin Rosen ( http://ourworld.cs.com/clasdis
). Marvin plays a wonderful selection of largely ignored classical music
from all eras, from the earliest extant music manuscripts to music that was
written within the past several months. He's a tireless champion of
unheard composers and his program is always worth hearing for the gems that he
manages to find and share.
