Donatella Flick Conducting Competition Barbican, 23 October 2000.
How extraordinary it was to hear one of Beethoven's Egmont overture in three highly contrasted performances - and an LSO on superlative form following the whims, or otherwise, of the three young conductors who made it to the final of the Donatella Flick Conducting Competition.
At times one was left aghast at the imaginative brilliance deployed, at others deflated by a conductor's singular lack of understanding of one of the keystones of the repertoire.

 Guardian | Classical music preview
Conductors make their way in the world by reputation, perseverance and, perhaps most of all, by the luck of being in the right place when a major star falls ill. Competitions are rather thin on the ground, not least because an orchestra has to be provided.
One major competition that bites the bullet is Donatella Flick, a glitzy, biannual affair run in association with the London Symphony Orchestra and under the patronage of the European Parliament.
This week, 20 competitors from nine countries (six from the UK) come to London for two preliminary rounds of supervised rehearsal and performance at the Royal Academy followed by a grand finale with the LSO on Wednesday.

At first glance, the Donatella Flick Conducting Competition would seem to be as effective at revealing great musicianship as Who wants to be a Millionaire is at revealing great intellect.
For each of the three finalists at the Barbican on Tuesday night, only two hours of rehearsal time with the London Symphony Orchestra were allotted, which, according to Musicians Union rules, means that one candidate's rehearsal would have been split by the lunch break.
For a model of assured conducting, the Flick finalists might look to Sir Charles Mackerras; nearly 50 years their senior but growing ever more fascinating and fluent.

 The Flick Filosopher | Short Cuts
Also involved are a stoner brother, a taco-joint Dumpster, a beloved classic automobile, a prized Beanie Baby, and a grenade launcher, but I can say no more.
Teen boys and young men, the intended audience for this breathtakingly idiotic mess of an action flick, are unlikely to have even heard of the original 60s series, one of the few to escape endless syndication, so why was it necessary to besmirch the memory of a beloved classic like this?
Darkly atmospheric and coolly composed, this stylish, shrewd flick -- about the power of repressed female aggression and the importance of being really, really nice to kitty -- is like a missing episode of The X-Files, only with less flashing of badges and more gore.
