The Lutoslawski, Martinu, and Bartok would be reason enough for me to go. There's a million other things I'd rather see than Elgar's Gerontius TBH.

Add the one with Matthias Pintscher. I'll have to let you know if I'm going to any of these. I haven't been to any yet this season, BUT my dad and I are going to the Saint-Saens 3 next Sunday. I wouldn't miss that...
