Well, it turns out that my friend is performing in the first Lunchtime Prom concert, playing Bach and Paganini, and will probably do an interview with Radio 3 as well.

Do lunchtime concerts get broadcast?

Who is your friend? (I'm too lazy to search for Prom listings!)

How, um, remote. In the unlikely event that anyone's interested, I'm married to someone who's performing in one of this year's "proper" Proms (i.e. not a lunchtime chamber recital) - Husband is singing in the performance of Alexander Nevsky on 29th July, so if you're not going to the Forums Stalybridge concert, tune in!

If we're on the subject of Proms performers we know, I was at school with one of the viola players in the BBCSO; we both went to the same school as one of the rentaband period instrument flautists.

Oh, and I once received a cold and clammy peck on the cheek from Leonard Slatkin in front of a television audience of millions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).

I-L I can't find your violinist friend's name in my Proms guide. Which Prom is he playing in?
