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

What were they thinking in the Windy City?

I agree.

Other than he's a Really Big Name?

The younger Barenboim was something to behold. Even his conducting was more interesting back then.

But his conducting has been singularly uninspiring for some time now. I have been sorely disappointed everytime I've heard him conduct in Chicago - and that's a great band.

Orchestra search committees are mysterious things. Our local wise men in Indianapolis passed on Marin ALsop (who wanted the job badly, I know not why) to saddle us with the numbingly mediocre Mario Venzaga.

Oh well. Things worked out for Alsop. Not so much for us :-(
