No, audiences here in Philadelphia are used to that.

But that's clearly a delay between the conductor's beat and when the musicians play. You still see their bows start and the percussion sticks and mallets hit the heads when the sound happens. In this telecast video the bows and sticks were pretty much with the conductor. The delay was between the *players'* movements and the sound.
