ARGHHHH!!!! This is SO frustrating! I was just clicking around and accidentally discovered that this concert was streamed live on BBC3 and it's just ended! There's a page here calIed BBC Radio 3 Listen Again which says you can "Listen to a selection of Radio 3 programmes and concerts, anytime, for up to 7 days after broadcast." Good luck if you can figure out how it works because I can't! I will try harder to keep us all better informed in the future.
