It's the longest queue I've seen so far at this year's proms - all the way to the end of Prince Consort Road and round the corner, even after the stewards had told them to budge up! And no wonder - they're here to hear one of the best orchestras in the world, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, led by one of the world's greatest conductors - Mariss Jansons, at the world's biggest classical music festival, playing one of the biggest symphonies in the repertoire - Shostakovich's mighty 10th. It's going to be a huge night.
