      Part of the title failed to copy. I have started a new one with the full title. If the reference to Andy Partridge passes you by, there is always Google to help you out. Perhaps Frenchie would be so kind move things around a bit.

      Tonight's Po3, by the way.

        "A musical exploration of states of ecstasy - spiritual and intellectual, as well as sexual - in this wide-ranging BBC Concert Orchestra programme. It includes Arnold Schoenberg's vision of a night transfigured, for two lovers, into a state of radiant bliss, Michael Torke's musical explosion of energy, light and colour, and Michael Nyman's setting of sexually explicit words by the Italian poet Pietro Aretino. Completing the programme, a special version of the 1993 classic Pet Shop Boys track in which Neil Tennant describes ecstasy as the urge to 'take all my clothes off and dance to the Rite of Spring'."

        The BBC Concert Orchestra plays music exploring various states of ecstasy.


        I think that's correctly amended ...

        And what no Scriabin ...
        It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

              Indeed, but I also have a bit of a soft spot for Mr. Partridge's 'xtras'.

              Oh, and a belated thanks for sorting out my mess Frenchie.

                No. What connection to Alan Partridge?

                  My first thought too

                  (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGI9L1wwlwY Taught the R3 'Breakfast' team everything they needed to know... )
                  "...the isle is full of noises,
                  Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                  Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                  Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                    Bryn, I chanced across your post within a minute of your posting. I was perhaps a little quick on the draw.
