In the midst of his busy preparations for the fall editions of 2009, Jan Vereecke; one of the two Jan’s behind the Night Of The Proms editions; replies briefly to our questions:

When will the last artists be known for the editions in Antwerp and The Netherlands?
Jan: The last artists will be made public on the 24th of August.

Will there be CD of the editions in Antwerp and The Netherlands?
Jan: We’re not sure about that. Now that both programs are running equally, it may be the worth the effort, but then all the artits will have to give their permission. In any case, we’re working on a double ‘Jubileum Best of’ CD with the greatest moments of the last 25 years. There will also be a ‘John Miles Proms Best of’ CD with some nice duets of John with guests of the Proms.

Will there be a fourth DVD?
Jan: We would like to do this next year.

Why is there a suprise quest for the editions in Antwerp?
Jan: This concept dates from 1992, when the editions in The Netherlands were performed before the Antwerp editions. In The Netherlands, Raymond was booked as extra quest and when we saw his success there, we decided to also invite him for the Antwerp editions…

Will there be National or International suprise quests to the 25th edition?
Jan: No, just like we announced Soulsister 2 years ago, and so we hadn’t got a suprise act, we’re now announcing Toots Thielemans: we consider his presence too important not to announce it.

Will Fine Fleur be back on stage?
Jan: Absolutely, there participance will be very special. That’s all I’m saying right now.

Thanks a lot, Jan!
