Philip Dukes (viola) will appear with the BBCNOW

Andrew Kennedy (tenor) will / should give a recital in the V & A
Outside chance
Possibly Alban Gerhardt with BBCSSO under Vanska
Wild speculation and wishful thinking
And a fair dose of Tippett as well I expect.
"Vision of Saint Augustine"? After all, it was a BBC commission, completed 40 years ago. House Band and Chorus - I'd say The Gerbil is most likely
next year will be the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar and the 111th season (will we all have to stand on one leg?), what do you think are the chances of getting the Nelson Mass?
Also, it will be the 100th anniversary of the first performance of Wood's Fantasia on British Sea Songs - anyone think we might get to hear it as Wood intended?
a concert version of Lennox Berkeley's wonderful opera, 'Nelson'?
Even further in the future
According to the detailed bid book for London 2012, "the BBC will stage a month long season of Prom concerts in the Royal Albert Hall with an Olympic theme". Now whether this means it'll be a shorter season, or the Olympic theme will only last for a month is anybody's guess
Suggested programme
Hasse's "L'Olympiade
