Why don't we do our own?

Everyone list their top 25 conductors, unranked.  Then we get to work!  Of
course it will reflect the combination of ignorance and knowledge unique to
this list...

here's my UNSORTED 25 (maybe I don't even know 25 conductors, I don't
think...)

  (1)   Zubin Mehta  (heh heh)
  (2)   Colin Davis
  (3)   John Eliot Gardiner
  (4)   Nicholas Harnoncourt
  (5)   Philippe Herrewighe
  (6)   John Barbirolli
  (7)   Georg Solti
  (8)   Wilhelp Furtwangler
  (9)   Yehudi Menuhin
 (10)   Herb von Karajan
 (11)   Roy Goodman
 (12)   Neville Marriner
 (13)   Fritz Reiner
 (14)   Bruno Walter
 (15)   Trevor Pinnock
 (16)   Daniel Barenboim
 (17)   Adrian Boult
 (18)   Eugene Ormandy
 (19)   Thomas Schippers
 (20)   George Szell
 (21)   Roger Norrington
 (21)   Arturo Toscanini
 (22)   Aathur Fiedler
 (23)   Thomas Beecham
 (24)   Leonard Bernstein
 (25)   Iona Brown

I apologize for the funny list, but in all honesty, I have to include only
names of conductors I have heard.  My tastes are rather narrow.

Regards, etc,
