Perhaps a reminder is needed for my page at:

   http://snowball.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/~cmvhk/concert.html

where members of the list going to (or giving!) performances in Britain
can make the fact public.  I will be adding more to it soon when I've
sorted out exactly what I'm going to in the Bath Festival.  Wasn't the
concert in question broadcast on Radio 3? In which case my daughter enjoyed
the Bruckner.  But I'm not sure her twelve-month-old critical faculties are
up to distinguishing a good Bruckner performance from a bad one.  I'd be
interested to hear what the concert 'Ariadne' was like!
