Whatever the copyright restrictions on American orchestras are apparently don't apply equally with all institutions.... Unlike most American orchestras, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra has been uploading full performances...... The sound quality is excellent by YouTube standards.Leonard Slatkin has been music director..... One of most-underrated of conductors, in my opinion..... Appears to be a great match..... Although not a traditional Big Five orchestra, the Detroit Symphony is one of America's very best right now. It may currently have the best wind section of any American orchestra.
Just subscribe to the channel..... The best part is that it's free.
