I'd love to hear Salonen conduct Adams' 'Naive and Sentimental Music' (a great piece) or the Debussy/Messiaen concert they're having in LA, but we don't have much like that in SF this year.All of this is a little weird because we still read lots of articles in the national press about how MTT is so connected with the community here and how he does such a great job introducing new music.
