    I'd be there for that one!

    PS: which orchestra / conductor do you think?

    LPO / Vanska might be fun...

    Definitely up for that. How about a series of Poulenc's chamber works for the Cadogan Hall series too? And Stravinsky's Dumbarton Oaks with Bach Brandenburg No 3 at the same place.

    For the main venue:

    Debussy: Jeux
    Faure: Pelleas et Melisande
    Koechlin: Les Bandar-log

    Stravinsky: Le roi des etoiles
    Stravinsky: Pulcinella (complete)
    Ravel: L'enfant et les sortileges

    and three late night proms:

    Arnold: Guitar Concerto
    Rossini: Petite Messe Solennelle
    Feldman: Rothko Chapel

    Who you calling "gross"?

    Three late-nighters:

    Music by Dunstable and his followers from the Eton Choirbook and Old Hall Manuscripts.
    (Any performers will do, but the Sixteen would be fine.)

    Ferneyhough: the Carceri d'Invenzione cycle.
    Elision Ensemble (making their grossly belated Prom debut); BBCSO/ Brabbins.

    Barrett: Opening of the Mouth.
    Elision.

    ... and an "all-dayer":

    James Dillon: Nine Rivers.
    Same forces who gave the World Premiere in Glasgow a couple of years ago.

    I hope no one will condemn me for this all-British selection (Elision are from Australia, and Ferneyhough is based in the US, if that helps!)
