          My issue is that Thielemann does miraculous things at Bayreuth and is a wonderful Strauss conductor etc but apart from his Bruckner, which is very fine, could he really sustain the BPO in repertory terms? (His technique is not the most fluid, it must be said, but the results are often there to hear...)

              Well said. Have you tried his lvB symphonies ? Again not consistently fine enough for Berlin.

                I've not heard his LvB symphonies but have heard negative reports. He may well be ahead of the pack at the moment in some quarters but ultimately the restricted repertoire and lack of international status could tell against him.

                I'm goiing to nail my colours firmly to the mast and go for Andris Nelsons with Riccardo Chailly as my second favourite. Both have the right profile.

                        Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                                I think you may be on the wrong thread, Bbm.
