I arrived at 17:00 and the Q was already very substantial, so for a change I decided to focus on the person who'd been here the longest. Johann, from South Africa, has been braving today's chilly weather since 9am."I very much wanted to hear Martha Argerich, but seats sold out immediately," he told me. "I knew it was a Sunday and lots of people would be queueing up, and I wanted to make absolutely sure I got in! Perhaps I was a little over-zealous, but I'm officially Number One!"
