Unregistered	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?

Unregistered	Nearly, but not quite - clarinet's never been to a pre-Prom entertainment. But the Proms start today!

Did you sing instead? I still can't quite get over the look of the tourists when we carried the timpani up exhibition road. BtW just got the Arnold Recorder Sonatina... its lovely.

I have a signed copy of the Fantasy as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) No Arnold at the Proms though this year. Scandalous in his 85th birthday year! Get thee to Northampton for the gala birthday concert at the Derngate on October 22nd (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I'll think about Northants, unfortunately it clashes with half term.
