pick of the week

the saturday before the festival starts is the first opportunity to see how we fare in the listings in the national press. Considering we only have a handful of events before there's another saturday, I think we've done OK. Aside from making the general listings in the guardian guide, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra's 5 July concert is 'Pick of the week'. In the Information (Independent), we pretty much survived the general classical listing cull, but the calibre of the Festival talks ensured a listing in the 'Five best talk & festivals' with Martin Bell, Roy Strong, Anna Pavord, and Marin Alsop's interview being picked out as highlights.
i'm in the office for a few hours updating schedules having already spend a few hours at another choir rehearsal...
