Thanks for this thread, dovers - very interesting. I might check through the Cadogan Hall concerts when I've got a mo to see if there's anything modern being performed.

The have a visiting orchestra which has concerts like this: http://www.barockorchester.de/progra...orelli-xl.html in their repertoire, but decided to go with Mendelssohn ... not that they won't be great, but a bit of a missed opportunity.

I quite agree, but it's probably a 'bums on seats' issue. Those two conductors and their ensembles will near fill the place. I can imagine it coming up at a planning meeting and the financial issue rearing its head. No excuse, of course. I am glad to see Ensemble Pygmalion are there, though! Every cloud...

Thank you everyone for adding the information.

If they BBC Singers are as good as they were in the Holy Week concert, I think it should be more than worth waiting for.

.
These days period ensembles seem to go for the main stream works in HIPP. I see the point but I wish they explore more early repertoir.

So am I. These ‘Proms début artists’ in early repertoire have been most enjoyable in the past.
