The Cleveland Orchestra does sound "gentle"..... But at the expense of articulation and "explosiveness".... I've called the sound "dainty" myself.A great example of this is the Welser Most performance of Brahms' "Academic Festival" Overture at the Proms...... It's a nice performance, but I'd rather be plastered to the back wall, if you will. (There's also a recent NHK/Blomstedt performance, audio only.)
