I wouldn't want to draw a straightline conclusion between orchestra/conductor quality and audience attendence. Baltimore is struggling also, and their leadership and execution (and programming) is very strong (at least through Temirkanov last year). LA has enormous population density to assist it -- don't laugh, it matters. I guess my point about NY is this: Get the hottest young conductor you can find...I'm not sure it will matter. The subscribers want their warhorses, and the young new audiences don't know what they want (or even if they want it). It may not matter who the chef is. LA is different: folks like young and new in LA (or so it seems). So, if the point is "they need radical change in NY just BECAUSE they need radical change" I agree. Spark notwithstanding, Maazel can be AWFULLY impressive on any given night with the NYP.
