A short announcement

Namely 'Huzzah, this year's Proms programme has been released!'

A fuller analysis of the season's offerings may be produced in time, but a cursory glance at the listings uncovers more than enough to whet my auditory appetite.  Notably, there's a pleasing amount of lesser-performed music, including Bax's Second Symphony, Berg's Der Wein, and actually some Honegger.  The usual classics predictably get another outing, but who's complaining - where else can you listen six feet away from Valery Gerghiev for a fiver?
