Proms Preview 16.07.2015

Am I the only one thinking this is a complete waste of a R3 evening? We don't need it, we know what the Proms are, thank you very much!

Or should I have listened more closely to the trailers??

No.

[Petrushka]

Completely agree, LMP, and have thought so since they started doing this (whenever that was).

Never mind, had an evening of CD's and there won't be too many of those over the next couple of months.

They remind me of Fairy Liquid adverts.

Something that shows the ultimate depravity of the R3 powers-that-be is the fact that this week's Radio Times Proms pull-out supplement devotes the first three-and-a-half pages to a second rate "pop" singer ( Frank Sinatra).
I wonder what I will be listening to over the next two months????
