I have been a regular reader of Fanfare and Gramophone for nearly 20 Years. I think the two magazines compliment each other nicely. I view Gramophone primarily as a source of information on new releases and as a quick reference for information on the recording garnered from the review. Fanfare is more hard core and I read the reviews more carefully because they include so much information on the recording and the recorded history of the piece. In neither case do I rely on the reviewers opinion in determining what to buy. Therefore, given what I use Gramophone for, I rather like the new format; but I want Fanfare to stay just the way it is.
