RE: Solti's Legacy

I was a student in Chicago from 77-91 (don't laugh -- three degrees) and got to hear Solti conduct the CSO many times. Whatever the merits of the Decca recordings, when he and the CSO were on, it was truly spectacular. I recall in particular a performance of Beethoven 7, that was unimaginably exacting and exciting. I admit I preferred to go hear Giulini, who was principal guest conductor. But that's no knock on Sir George. He may not be to your taste, but bashing him? Get a life.
