I doubt it.  When was the last time you heard of a commercial station
switching **TO** Classical?  Most if not all Classical stations have been
that way forever.

You sound like the people who complain about Classic Rock stations playing
"Freebird" and "Layla" so much and wish they'd play more Moby Grape, King
Crimson and 12-minute Grateful Dead cuts.  You wanna hear the more esoteric
tunes in any genre?  Your best bet is a non-comm of some sort.
