First Night Of The Proms

[Ellipsis]

On BBC2 now.

I'm loving it ...what about you?

[Ellipsis]

I've watched a fair bit of live sport with no audience and found it a bit flat. But a live orchestra with no audience is excellent.

Ellipsis, did you have a Mac burger beforehand? " i'm loving it"

[Ellipsis]

I haven't had a McDonald's this century, piggynose.

did watch it, brilliant, love the Beethoven at any rate, one of my all time favourite symphonies.

Does anyone know if the John Wilson orchestra have or are going to perform this year?

[Ellipsis]

It doesn't look like it. The schedule is very reduced, and is here:

I liked Quiet City by Aaron Copeland, stark trumpet and oboe solos, with lush underlying strings - the images of empty city streets captured the mood
