If you wear a white scarf (and matching white gloves) with a tuxedo,you could be in for a very big surprise. THe last time I committed such a heinous act of tastelessness, I was mistaken for the late,great,operatically-trained Darryl Pandy's bouncer and handed a brown envelope brimming with twenty pound notes.

Hurwitz is right to call out Heras-Casado's historically inappropriate performance!

[Alan Howe]

Is there a wider application, though? How 'authentic' is much of the HIP infiltration of romantic-era orchestral repertoire? If Hurwitz can find records of how the VPO strings played, is it possible to find similar accounts of other orchestras' string-sound from the past?
