To look life in the face

For me to hear Jean-Yves Thibaudet perform and Lorin Maazel conduct at the Proms would cost me a mere 15 quid and I would catch the performance on my way home. 

For me to hear Jean-Yves Thibaudet perform alongside the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra London at the Festival de Musique Classique Montreux-Vevey, I would need to pay 25 quid for a ticket and a return train ride to Montreux.
