Your post gives us thoughtful, enlightening, and absorbing information. Why can't we have more of that, rather than the predatory pugnacity of your unfortunate colleague? Perhaps you should have a word with 'him'.
Fascinating information. Which orchestra did Walther Straram lead? I'm unfamiliar with him.
How would you regard Ormandy? Everyone said that he inherited the lush string sound of the PO from Stokowsky - do you think so?
Even if true, Ormandy managed to sustain it for 50 years or more - a couple of generations. So, that'd indicate that Ormandy certainly played a part in generating that famous PO sound. He didn't retire either, did he?
