@b286guy Haitink has been our greatest living conductor for over 40 years. But he didn't ski down Alpine slopes with model wives for photo ops like von Karajan (no knock whatsoever on von Karajan). It's taken a while for the music world to find out about it. It's taken a while for even Haitink to find out about it.

Keep the dislikes at zero. Keep the likes up.
Berlin Philharmonic is perfect with Haitink. Purely perfect. Nothing can beat this.

@b286guy I agree with your last comment. Lesser bands are capable of surrounding terrible under one conductor and staggering under another but there's a certain high standard below which it's impossible for the tiny handful of really GREAT bands - like the BPO and VPO - to fall no matter who is wielding the baton. Which begs the question; how much of the wonderful results are due to the conductor or the innate standardsof the bad. Could a serious dedicated amateur produce the same results??

@coldstream07 Yes I agree.(Rattle apart) great conducters seems to become "great" until they are >60 years old or so.

@b286guy Nice man. Are you from Chicago? And are you a musician?

@AWiddit Ha, Haitink was looking tired of all that walking back and forth. I went to the Saturday performance, and it was funny to see him close the score and ask the musicians to leave the stage right after him. For me, he's the greatest living conductor, and it was an amazing Mahler 9.
This sounds like a great Bruckner 5 performance. No surprise really considering the orchestra and conductor.
