The local reviews were not 100% positive - one said the orchestra was out of time and the other blamed the conductor for his tempi.

Sitting quietly and listening should be simple for most people above primary school age. As for amplification, if this was introduced (entirely superfulously) in Phil concerts I for one - a young person - would not attend!. Perhaps, though, there could be more brief conductor introductions to pieces played.

I have been to a John Lennon event at Phil Hall and was surprised to see people coming and going for drinks! (and then the loo presumably!)

I think it's doing a disservice to 'young people' to suggest they can't sit still and quiet for more than ten minutes. They have to sit that long - and longer - in exams.<br /><br />Perhaps a better option would be to adapt young people to the concert johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09676581639626796580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774988618610646245.post-246098066842463492010-10-01T02:58:23.773+01:002010-10-01T02:58:23.773+01:00Sorry for duplication- had a blip!
