Talk:London Symphony Orchestra

message: Something must be said about the fact that the LSO has sunk so low as to accept sponsorship from the devil, the tobacco companies 180.216.102.61 (talk) 03:55, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

message: Why is there a principal conductors section when it just duplicates exactly what is in the template of the same name? I'll remove the section for now, it can be discussed here, if needed. I'll also preserve the table on this page Lethe 21:28, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: although i am agnostic on the subject for now, i replaced the section on principal conductors as the issue should be discussed before article is changed.  although the data is indeed somewhat redundant, it should be noted that the template only indicates begin dates, and do not reflect periods of vacancy. --emerson7 | Talk 05:23, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I think its wrong to link each notable recording to the LSO website, where one can proceed to purchase. we are not a sales engine for record sales, no matter how high minded the operation is. i see this talk page is not very active. I will probably remove the links in the next week, unless someone argues successfully for some other plan.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 17:14, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

message: It would be interesting to know why LSO is so widely used in TV, Movie, Games, non-classical music etc. It seems that if a rockband used a orchestra, if a tv-game used a orchestra or latest if Apple used an orchestra it always is LSO. Why?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.226.157.61 (talk) 09:55, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Why so widely used?

message: The Recordings section of this article is currently heavily biased towards film music and commercial (pop) initiatives which, although very notable (see for instance the query above), could scarcely be considered the major artistic recording achievements of this orchestra. I've temporarily created a 'Further reading' section so as to add Richard Morrison's LSO biography to the article: although not currently cited as a "source", I feel it must be one of the most comprehensive best available.--MistyMorn (talk) 09:35, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  'Recordings' section not representative 

message: The infobox is wrong - none of these have been members. If correct, the box would need to have 100s of names in there (even the current complement would have 80 or so names (http://www.lso.co.uk/players)). This is particularly ironic for this orchestra, one of the few which had a book published consisting entirely of the thoughts of the players themselves...  Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 15:52, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I so agree, but the infobox zealots are not to be budged. A victory for theology over common sense, I fear. I think they'd be outraged at the idea that "members" should actually list the members. And which of the zealots, I wonder, would bother to keep the list up to date from month to month from the LSO's website. Heigh ho! Tim riley (talk) 19:14, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Have removed the non-members from the "members" category. Have done the same chez BBC Symphony Orchestra. If Cg2p0B0u8m likes to extend this removal of misinformation in other articles about symphony orchestras I shall applaud heartily. Tim riley (talk) 19:31, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
