        Don't forget this year's great innovation...!

        To celebrate the 90th anniversary, Radio 3 will broadcast this year's Proms in lossless audio via the BBC website - at a minimum of 16-bit/44.1kHz quality.


        Do try to implement it anyway you can.....

          Amazon have given a new estimated date of delivery - April 26, nearly a week after publication date. What's going on?

            Obviously can't be trusted with the embargo, unlike Waterstones/ your local indie/ whoever.
            I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

              Perhaps they're busy preparing all the orders of the bargain Strauss opera box (that ts alerted us to on the Bargains thread) for despatch?

                  I got the same message, but the my orders page on the website now says it will be delivered today.

The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square."

                          You might say that, but I couldn't possibly comment. ;)

                              So I see.. Is this the new 'Economy website'? Can't see By Composer etc. and where is a page that lists the concerts by day. Damned if I'm going to wade through each day, clicking Show More Info' on every damn entry.

                                No WEDO or Argerich - not many obvious highlights at first glance - Barenboim in the Elgar symphonies and Bernie to follow in the first weekend looks the most exciting part .
