Granted, I haven't heard VPO do any of the Beethoven you mentioned (I'll check it out). Like I said, I'm being totally subjective here. I did enjoy a televised broadcast of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" and "Till Eulespiegal" and it's always a pleasure to see their unique instruments and hear the well-interpreted J Strauss waltzes... perhaps I've let a couple recordings I didn't like (namely Shostakovich 5th) come into conflict with my view of the orchestra. I'm not totally convinced, but you have interested me. Thanks, Chuck.
