      @@jacobpottala well, my own. But some Russians might know what I am talking about. Konstantin from the Inside Russia channel argues that the Russian system needs renewal like the phoenix bird. The phoenix is an ancient Middle Eastern legend about burning up and being reborn. Actually, I realized later that the Russian firebird folklore is rather different from the ancient Phoenix legend. Nonetheless, there is hope for the future. We have to keep striving for a better world and people should accept this may come through immense suffering, as is currently happening in Eastern Europe and elsewhere right now.

      Seriously, I'm pretty sure my top favorite composer list has an inordinate number of Russian composers - Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Stravinsky, and Tchaikovsky. And there's so many more awesome ones after just those four!
      My main gripe with performances is that they only play small selections of these composers' works, especially with full orchestra. There are many more less-known pieces I'd love to hear more often, or less known composers even! I wish it was easier for orchestras to get people in seats so they could have more freedom in what they decided to play.
      Anyway, after that essay - regardless of my gripes, I'm not complaining that Firebird is often played. It's amazing and deserves the honor!

    It's comments like these, in this section, that push people away from enjoying classical music in general. Fans who prefer one particular PERFORMANCE will try to push their opinions on others and it's INSANE.
    One conductor will elicit a completely different performance from an orchestra than another conductor. Neither one is wrong, they just have a different interpretation. Likewise: you, as a listener and observer, are perfectly within your rights to prefer one conductor and orchestra over another. But to somehow imply or actually SAY that one performance is "better" than another is wholly subjective. Don't like Dudamel? Cool. Find another conductor and orchestra and then offer that to readers. This is the JOY of classical (and jazz) music: keep watching and listening! Because different musicians will interpret the same music in WILDLY different ways, and that is what makes it AMAZING.
    To me: The music is INCREDIBLE and deserves to be heard. If this orchestra and conductor doesn't do it for you, check out other performances of the same piece! It can sound unbelievably different in the hands of a different orchestra and conductor, and that can make all the difference. Don't throw out a composition based on just one performance!!!
