It does not always have to be Beethovn
Good on you, Aeolian.
I was in London end of October and attended both the Bruckner and Mahler.

The Mahler ending was sublime, with the strings really whispering so succinctly that one could hear the bows vibrate the strings. It reminded me of the Abbado recording on YouTube.... just watch the last 5 minutes, if you can't listen to it all....

How sad this man no longer is with us and that I never got to see him live. I should have seen him, but the concert I had planned was cancelled... he was never to conduct again.
