Balance was always at a premium so that the contributions of the alto flute and alto clarinet could be understood in their entirety, but the main achievement of the performance lay in the way in which it ensured that the textures elicited always followed the shape of the music at that particular moment. This astute observation for the character of the music then continued as the fullest, most intense passages, towards and at the end of the first movement, achieved a rigidity that emphasised the cohesion of the forces without making the music sound mechanical or simply hyperbolic.

The contrast between the largely lyrical second movement and busier third was brought out extremely well, while the final movement was managed superbly as the music was built up and then wound down to end, especially on this occasion, in the most surprising fashion.

The Symphony in Three Movements is arguably the most well known, and certainly the most frequently performed at the Proms, of the three pieces. The interaction between the piano and strings was strong from the start, with it really feeling as if the brass was bursting forth early in the first movement.

English Baroque Soloists. Monteverdi Choir. Sir John Eliot Gardiner conductor. I was at the Great Pop Prom and am trying to remember all the other acts that took part. I know Susan Maughan was one of them. Does anyone know who the others were? I attended all the Pop Proms and had a wonderful time! Cheers, Sid Davy. Sid — Davy — how are you? Wondered whether you were still around. Yes, I remember you well, Sylvia.

Did you at one time work for a coach company in Farnham? Still sing and play guitar — all the old stuff; doing a 60th birthday gig next week. Am still in touch with my good friend Harvey Hinsley; lead guitarist with Hot Chocolate.

Best wishes, Sid alias Davy of Valentine. Me e-mail address is Sidney. Hayden btinternet. Hi Joe. I was there that day…it was the first concert I had ever attended, and what a great show it was! My sister and I were in the cheap seats, so we were quite a distance from the stage, but just to see The Beatles live was such an amazing experience!
