A sharp-eyed Slipped Disc readers has spotted the following on the BBC Radio 3 site:

Bryn Terfyl (sic) performing the title role in Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov.

The John Wilson Orchestra performing the best of Ira Gershwin, marking the 120th anniversary of the composer’s (!) birth.

Ten cello concertos, starting with Elgar’s Cello Concerto, performed by Sol Gabetta on the First Night (all 10 performed on 1st night?)

All this in a one-page summary.

More signs of a dromedary season designed by committee.
