Unlike you I would vastly prefer to hear the BPO in the high school gym than vice-versa. (And I've *played* in a number of high school gyms! ;-) )

I'm going to hear the music. If the sound is good, so much the better. That goes for recordings, too.

"It is apparent that, should a community set out to have a wonderful orchestra, they place most emphasis on the hall-- THAT must be first rate."

---This is by no means apparent. Said community might invest in a wonderful hall and end up with Avery Fischer. Then what? They'll still have a fine orchestra--or not. See point one.

The music comes first. All else is gravy.

Kindly send me a case of whatever you've been drinking. ;-)
