Re: The Covid Opportunity to listen, assess and re-asses.
I find much to agree with and disagree with in your ranking of composers and musicians, Dieter. My rankings: Mahler belongs in the top tier, Elgar and Bax earn a place in the second tier. Musicians who 'speak to me' absolutely include Bruno Walter, Horenstein, Fricsay, Wilhelm Kempff, Schneiderhan, Boult and Vladimir Verbitsky. Toscanini does some of the time, Colin Davis seldom (except in Haydn symphonies). No doubt I've overlooked some who also deserve places.
