 Re: Are people playing louder?

I seem to remember Jack Brymer, the famous English clarinettist, saying (it may be in one of his books) that working under some conductors was like ‘orchestral navvying’. This would have been in the 1970\80s. Navvys were the Irish immigrant labourers who hand dug the London docks and canal system in England. I believe volume expected of players, with the necessary physical effort that required, was the main issue.
