          *Caliban gets googling* (because he doesn't dare ask for an explanation on-thread!)
          "...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..."

              BBCSSO 2016/17 season

              I haven't yet got tickets, but next season's programme for the BBCSSO has just arrived (well, a few hours ago, to be accurate, in today's post). The most intriguing (and possibly most exhausting) concert has to be a reconstruction of the 1808 concert that saw the first performances of Beethoven's 5rth & 6th symphonies, 4th piano concerto, three movements from the C Major Mass, and assorted smaller pieces, starting at 3.00 & finishing at 7.30.

              Apart from that, there are the Elgar symphonies, some Tippett, Birtwhistle's Last Supper, Ian Bostridge singing in Britten's Serenade ..., Brecht/Weill Seven Deadly Sins, Mahler & Haydn, among others. A very varied programme, the first under the new conductor, Thomas Dausgaard.

                Ritual dances, and symphonies 1 and 2; lucky you!
                Hope they get broadcast.

                Semi-staged Last Supper too, I see. Some sitting at the table, the rest standing?

                  Usually are broadcast, even if not live (the Ritual Dances are just the sort of thing slipped in as a filler after the afternoon concerts)

                                Is that the late late show?

                                OR...should I go for this?
