Have noticed in extremely small print in the Radio Times that BBC 4 tv has Proms on Four in the early hours of the morning every night next week starting tomorrow. No indication which concerts, unless it's on the BBC 4 web site.

Thanks John. Do I remember correctly that the Golijov songs weren't peformed because of Dawn Upshaw's illness ?

Bobbyz,

I remember she was ill but I can't remember how the programming was affected. The BBC website could be searched for that.

The Golijov was replaced by Beethoven's C minor concerto with Lllyr Williams.

I was at the gig and did not find it particularly inspiring; the Barber was the best part of it.
