Ignore the most inane and inappropriate ‘blurb’ on the website. The music should be good, although I wish they’d had included works less familiar.

Thanks for the heads-up on this doversoul. I think I will tune in. A couple of days ago I listened to the Orchestral Suite #4 by The Musica Antiqua Köln, Reinhard Goebel.

Yes, DS, what a shame it couldn't have been a more imaginative programme - that's what I miss about the old days of the AAM, they often gave us rarer repertoire, but now they seem content to remain with all the old favourites!

Incidentally, where is Milton Court? Not a concert venue I have heard of before.

Luckily for me, this is pushing the boundaries!!

Delicious stuff.

It's a great concert - familiar music, but rendered so fresh and inexhaustible

Yes, there's lots of new stuff round the Barbican.

There are two new cinema screens as well, on Beech St (that horrible tunnel street heading west) http://www.barbican.org.uk/film/new-cinemas
