Good idea, Chuck. Now, let's see . . .
Cleveland/George Szell
Dvorak–Carnival Overture
Shostakovitch–Symphony #5
Rachmaninoff–Piano Concerto #3
Intermission
Stravinsky–Firebird (Complete Ballet)
If it was really possible, but was only a one-off, I would pick things that highlighted the group's strong suit and give me a good amount to do that was still easy enough to just sit and enjoy being in the middle of that sound that they generated under him. I would want a lot of 1960s Cleveland Horn and John Mack.
