You remind me that I did see Colin Davis conduct Gerontius live (in NY?) some 20 years ago. But, my seats were too far back for me to be genuinely immersed in the performance. Plus, I think I am biased by the several great recordings I have heard . This is a work that comes off particularly well for home reproduction on a high fidelity system...the power of the orchestra, the organ, the clarity of the vocal lines are all kept in balance...tricky to do live, IMO.
It isn't easy to find live choral events by professional singers -- I should work a little harder to attend some!:-)
