[Swprograms] Edinburgh Festival concerts on BBC Radio 3

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

** U K. Besides the Prom Concerts, BBC Radio 3 has now also started
broadcasting concerts from the Edinburgh Festival. A series from the Queen`s
Hall is airing M-F thru Sept 1 at 1200 UT, but you won`t find them under E or Q
on the BBC Radio 3 Listen Again player --- you only find them under Lunchtime
Concert, and apparently each ondemand lasts only one day. So you have to keep
up with these every day, instead of having a full week to hear them as in the
case of each Prom concert. Looking at the upcoming listings, length varies from
60 to 100 minutes, causing most of the Proms playbacks, which had been at 1300,
to be delayed as late as 1340. There are also Edinburgh Sunday Galas at 1300
UT, and in September after Proms are over, delayed Edinburgh evening concerts
start up. See
