i think the budapest festival orchestra is utterly brilliant.

and all of a sudden i understand what conductors are for. remember milo conducting the dawn in the phantom tollbooth? watching ivan fischer is a little like that, as if he drew the colour out of each note through himself.

it would be years before they come to singapore again or the us for that matter i've been looking at their tour schedule and they aren't going anywhere out of europe before 2006 is there any help for me?
