Two drop out of BBC Proms over ‘scheduling issues’

The Philharmonia conductor Santtu-Matias Rouvali has dropped out of this Saturday’s Prom and Miah Persson has withdrawn on 4 September.

Both cite ‘scheduling issues arising from the pandemic’, which is singularly uncommunicative.

It sounds like an agent’s euphemism for something else. Any ideas.

Their replacements are Paavo Jarvi (same agent) and the US soprano Francesca Chiejina.
