With the season being announced next month, what would you like to see at this summers classical event?
After last summers Michael Ball concert, it will be interesting to see whether any other even or concert musical will be given a chance.

I would love to see musicals included again. Maybe Ball as a host/presenter of various current shows and also showcase some shows from the past. I loved his concert last year. I know it was not a purists view of the proms but I quite liked it.

Anyone thin a Philip Quast show would be great?

Everyone, I imagine! BTW was the "Thin" (as opposed to "think") a freudian slip?!

Following Philip Quast's powerhouse performance of Dominic Muldowney's 'Tsunami' song cycle at the Barbican last Friday, I feel that Sir Andrew Davis should put in a good word for him!!

glad to hear it was good. i really wanted to go but my bank manager told me not to...

You can catch it on the BBC Radio 3 iPlayer for the next week or so....

Well worth a listen.

You've got the Berlin Philarmonic, what more do you want from life?!

the LSO, chicago SO, dresden etc etc for starters!

Now that's just greed...

Stefan Dohr and Radek Baborak. As a horn player that's two of my dream dinner party guests...

I would like to see the Boston symphony make a return visit, although i am sure it will be a while before we saee that again. Curzon, if yoru looking for LSO, there doing a prokofiev symphony cycle in Edinburgh over 3 or 4 nights for the festival, i have my tickets adn can't wait.

Could you post a link for the LSO concerts? I can't find it on the internet...maybe I'm just bad at looking, who knows
