''Limelight'' is an Australian monthly classical music and arts magazine based in Sydney. Founded in January 1976, the magazine was originally published under the name ''ABC Radio 24 Hours'', or simply ''24 Hours'', and relaunched as ''Limelight'' in June 2003.〔(About the ABC )〕〔(Celebrating 100 Years of Radio )〕 == Development and achievements == The magazine was originally a subsidiary of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's classical music radio station, ABC Classic FM, and existed primarily to provide program details for the station's listeners. The title ''24 Hours'' came to the inaugural Director of ABC FM, Christopher Symons, "literally in the middle of the night. It also occurred to me ... that if we got the magazine and its title established, it would be difficult for management to cut the station back to 18 hours a day".〔Christopher Symons, "From 24 hours to ''24 Hours''", ''24 Hours'' magazine, January 1996, p. 23〕 From 2006 to January 2014 it was published by Haymarket Media Group under licence from the ABC. From February 2014 ownership was transferred to Arts Illuminated Pty Ltd, and there is no longer any formal connection with the ABC. In January 2012, it ceased listing detailed ABC Classic FM radio programs for the forthcoming month. This reflected a decision by ABC management to end forward programming, to allow greater flexibility. The magazine focuses on the arts in general, but on the Australian classical music scene in particular. As of the March 2015 issue the magazine's editor is Clive Paget.〔()〕 Francis Merson was the editor for four years prior to this. Under Merson, ''Limelight'' was awarded the Relaunch of the Year prize at the 2012 Publishers Australia Excellence Awards. This was in recognition of the magazine’s successful relaunch in June 2012, with a new design and greater editorial focus on contemporary music and reviews. Francis Merson also earned runner-up in Editor of the Year category.〔()〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Limelight (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
