Jamie Crick I once heard say that he would playing something from one of Sibelius's violin concertos !

Perhaps he meant one of the two versions of Sibelius's Violin Concerto!

These stories are reminding me of my favourite Classic FM quote from, I think, Henry Kelly, back in the early days of the station:

'That was 'Dawn' from Britten 'Sea Interludes.' Good job he didn't call her Sharon or Tracey, eh?'

Hadn't heard that gaffe before but it rather reminds me of another old one from the same source who, having announced that they'd just played Dvořák's something-or-other (I can't now recall what), added "doesn't say who wrote it, though"...
