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

I completely agree.

If the tradition isn't constantly renewed it will eventually die. According to a composer friend of mine the problem is actually with the usually non-musician orchestra administrators who are actually (and surprisingly) involved with the selection of repertoire. I'm not clear on where the role of the music director ends and the admin people takes over. He describes these admin folks as typically VERY conservative in musical taste and woefully ignorant of contemporary music in general. They appear to be a major stumbling block. This is also a major problem in the area of commissions, with decisions often not made by the music directors.
