GOOD AND PERHAPS EVEN BETER NEWS
27th of October
In our review of the premiere on the 23th of October we concluded that overall the show was good but we complained about the problems regarding the sound. During the rehearsals, Jan reported the sound to be good, but since there is a difference between the sound in an empty and a full arena… The problem is solved now and the quality of the sound became much better. That is good news.
During the weekend, Marie of Roxette got an infection of her throat which caused her voice to be less on the show of last Saturday. Immediatly she was put on medication. On Sunday she sang a lot better and her voice will be back to full strenght from Wednesday on. Also good news.
The running order of the premiere is still applied; the proof that the show was well prepared and jugded by the organization so that no adaption had to be made. Again, good news.
Question of the release for a CD of the Antwerp and The Netherlands edition was not denied by Jan. He wrote:”PERHAPS…”. Wouldn’t that be good news?
For the Charleroi 2010 edition there no artists booked yet.
Our review of the premiere is available through this link (when you still want to be surprised, it’s better not to read it yet). And the photo gallery is made available here (Thanks to Bart Henseler for the wonderful photo’s).
Counting down towards the premiere was done here.
Reactions of the Flemish media in account of the new edition are also gathered.

Christophe, who sings the bass at Fine Fleur, keeps a blog about the preparations of the choir to the fall shows. Lieselot helps him with the Dutch translations (so only available in Dutch and French).
Welcome!
This is a fan page of the Night of the Proms-editions in Belgium and The Netherlands. To make NOTP also famous across the border, we offer this website in three languages: Dutch, French and English.
German visitors we like to forward to the German fan page of our German NOTP friend Stephan. His site was kind of a model for us; thanks for that, also thanks to Jan and Bart of the organization.
This website could not be started without a good collaboration between multiple fans. Bernard and Dries started it, Laurent did a lot of research, and Christophe completed the team.

We would like to bring a complete review of each year, starting with the shows of the 80′s and the 90′s. Where you there? Send us your impression of the show, and we can publish it on this site.
Of the shows between 1985 and 1994 we were not sure of the running order; thanks to Kris we could correct the ones from 1991 and later. Can you help us with the playlists between 1985 and 1990? All extra information remains welcome.
