You confuse me Rumpole perhaps it's true what Mr. Gove says about the legal profession's treatment of poor people? -
What is the nature of your confusion, that I may attempt to elucidate (free of charge)?Originally posted by antongould View Post

What am I meant to spot? More Britten or Playlist howlers or Carhill v The Carbolic Smokeball Company?Originally posted by Caliban View PostWhat is the nature of your confusion, that I may attempt to elucidate (free of charge)?

Sorry, I see now: you are quite right. I posted hastily before pedalling off furiously to oppress the poor with writs and injunctionsOriginally posted by antongould View Post
The expanded version of my post would be:
"There is a spot more Britten on Essential Classics at the moment, antongould" (It was an aria from "Midsummer Night's Dream")
Subsequently, there was a spot more Finzi too, infinitely preferable to yesterday's performance: Vernon Handley conducting the Elysian "Eclogue" with Piers Lane

Very, scary then as the EC Playlist makes no mention of the Britten either!! Perhaps Britten should really have been top of Suffy's survey last year??Comment

D'ye see what C B-H did there? She preceeded it with a fairly lengthy introduction about ballet and its changing nature in the 20th/21st century and then just when you thought we were going to hear more about contemporary dance she whips out her Buckaroo and BANG! we're back on ClassicFM mode.Originally posted by antongould View PostO Wort, du Wort, das mir Fehlt!Comment

Who knows? According to the schedule, CBH did Friday instead of Petroc, and he's billed to be back tomorrow. Maybe just a long weekend at another festival somewhere???Originally posted by antongould View PostIt isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal.
