    I don't think there was a separate thread yet - see Msg #19.
    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.

      Oh yes - that's the post I remembered - thought it was a separate thread, and more extensive. Thanks ff

      I want to know what's on at the First Night, hope some of our detectives can turn up some advance info
      "...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..."

                  So... just a few weeks to go to the season announcement... do we have any more insights into possible concerts this year?.... Was the idea of a Top Gear Prom just a mischevious rumour?....

                      I'm sure I saw one

                      Here - http://www.for3.org/forums/showthrea...4-advance-info

                      it's in 'Talking about music' - 'Performance' would seem to be the more likely place, perhaps it could be moved?

                              The Edinburgh International Festival is launched today - http://www.eif.co.uk/?utm_source=Mai...8877-264164865. That might give some indication of what orchestras are visiting the UK - they frequently do both the EIF and the Proms.
