It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Pletnev? Gergiev? Thinkers??

Pletnev's conducting is as dry and thin and unimaginative as his upper lip. Compare Pletnev to Mravinsky (sp) in Scriabin. I *think* Gergiev is a scam--an actual product of the media and swallowed whole by the weak-minded consumer, or uneasy Classical music loving males who perfer his mug on a CD cover rather than Walter, now Wendy Carlos' rather than Gergiev is a Sinopoli with a bad beard and half the imagination. How's that for an opinion?
