I was going to add Dutoit as well, but they let him down badly in one of the two concerts he conducted last year - very poor playing in Firebird, for example. However, the following week they were brilliant, playing a Berlioz program.
Also they play better for Bychkov.

Dang!
I missed that one and he's one of my favorites!
Not sure if he has been here very recently. Some 5 (?) years back he led a performance of Rachmaninoff's Second that was to die for (first half of the program was The Bells, which I found less inspiring). I also saw him lead another concert that included the Paganini Variations - think it was Karill Gerstein on piano. I had tickets for a performance of Bruckner's 8th, but couldn't make it.
some years back. Didn't know it was him as I didn't know who he was back then.
Yes, Vienna Phil was good and likely would have been regardless.
Have The Bells above on SACD and I do think I like this performance of the Symphonic Dances even better that the Minnesota/Reference Recording version which was my favorite 'Audiophile' recording for some time.
