It seems to me that many of the visiting orchestras that come to Carnegie Hall tend to program a lot of the same repertoire.
I think there should be, in the spirit of good old American competition, a Carnegie Hall Prize for the best performance of a selected piece.
The orchestras would come and play their concerts and be judged by a jury.
At the end of the year all the votes will be tallied and the winning orchestra will get an all-paid free weekend vacation to Disney World in sunny Orlando Florida.
And yes of course, this will simultaneously be aired on television as a reality show, insuring our nation’s children are exposed to classical music.
