The buzz

Hello, you little musical lovelies

I'm Seymour Scandall and I'm your backstage spy. If you want the latest tittle-tattle from the classical world, this blog is for you…so, who's the young Baltic batonmeister and former student of Mariss Janssons who's allegedly destined to be the next music director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra? And is Mikko Franck, the 20-something whizzkid, about to resume his post as music director of the Finnish National Opera, a job he quit in February?

Stay tuned!!!
