None of these conductors appear to be as good as the current conductors.

The opposite is right :we have nowadays just dead bodies bad technical empty conductors without knowledge of philosophy structure meaning of melody harmony and good taste..terrible times

@@emiliacastiglia1439 Thank you Emilia. I believe that there are a handful of "good" conductors today, the emphasis seems to be on precision at the expense of depth. Todays generation doesn't seem to understand this. They can read music but are unable to hear it.

@@michaelstearnesstearnes1498 we understand it, but I don’t think it’s easy at all to pull it off. Kind of like how Barenboim is a Furtwangler wannabe but hardly ever pulls it off. It’s probably easier to be a part of the precision oriented “Toscanini” school than to innovate and develop a personal style and be very good in it.

@@ianng9915 None of today's conductors compares to Toscanini. Toscanini was stylistically unmistakable. As was Szell. As was Weingartner, Muck, Kleiber, Klemperer, Busch, Mravinsky, and Ansermet, though they were all so called objectivists.

You're kind of a millenial, right? Or are you a toddler? All these masters were legends. Now, if anything, we have cute embryos exercising their cute aerobics on the podium. Most of today's conductors are as overhyped as a TikTok video. Fact is, these past masters built the standards we take for granted, and from scratch.
