Just now on BBC Radio 3, the evening concert @ 7.30, Herbert Blomstedt was consistently referred to as being ninety-three. He’s ninety-two, born 11 July 1927; might as well get in right. Good concert, Blomstedt and the Bavarian Radio SO, recorded just before last Christmas in Munich, Mozart Symphony 39 & a wonderful C-minor Mass (K427): worth (re-)catching on BBC iPlayer.
