From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

RE: ". . . are you going to compare how the BP plays for Petrenko with how the NYPO plays for anyone?"

Petrenko was not the point of my post, though I would be happy to take up his case. The orchestra is the point. How the BP plays for Petrenko is. How they play for others is too.

The paywall is down this week again for Harnoncourt's Beethoven 5th. Have a look. See how they respond to him. If you've heard a better one I'd like to know about it.

As for the NYPO attracting a conductor of the first rank you write that there are non-musical elements feeding into the answer. I'd be interested to know what you think those are. Because something has worked against this orchestra for a very very long time.
