Proms 2012 (perhaps)

and there should be some Cage as it is the 100th anniversary of his birth
but I bet we get more Titanic and Jubolympics

There had better be some Vaughan Williams after last years disgraceful shun.

Egg wetter gree! Shameful.
They've slimmed down on Bruckner in recent years too.

Well we are certainly due to hear the Concerto for Prepared Piano and Chamber Orchestra on August 17, (Tilbury, Iceland SO, Voklov, I think).

According to an unofficial source, the Proms programming committee has approached one Mr Suffolkcoastal whose expertise in Popular Works Played on Radio 3 is said to be unrivalled.

OOOPS, we have two threads running with the same title, the other one obviously serious and this one generally satirical. Unfortunately, it looks as if some serious comments are now getting posted here. FF, can you add 'serious' and 'satirical' ('scurrilous'??) to their titles please?

Not Proms 2012?

I'm not sure that everyone divides their world up in that way ?

They have indeed contacted me to find out the most played works for their 'Most Wanted, no this is no way meant to be copying CFM Prom'. The prom will therefore include Jupiter from The Planets, a selection of Hungarian and Slavonic Dances, a selection from Prokofiev's Romeo & Juliet, some chunks from the Four Seasons, Debussy Prelude selection, a selection of Schubert Impromptus, the outer movements of Sibelius's Karelia Suite and the Ravel Mother Goose Suite. There will also be a series of sequels with the most played works of the RW regime, gushingly presented by the 'Most Wanted Trio' of KD, SMP and CBH.

Where's the "Like" button?

There should of course be a little p in a circle character - for paranoid - that you can insert after BBC.
