Yet another poll: Vote for your favorite "big five" EUROPEAN orchestras

[Que]

Question: your favourite five?

If I am supposed to choose five, why are there only five to choose from?

Conclusion: silly poll.

Q

[Mark]

Perhaps it's time I explained what I didn't think I'd have to when I created this (as M rightly puts it) 'pointless poll'. It was an act of lampoonery; a response to the other, very similar poll currently running, with its rather parochial (i.e. US-biased) focus. I had a fit of pique when I saw that other poll, and this one was my knee-jerk reaction. So of course, it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. And yes, Que, the grammar is poor ... all part of my lampoonery, you see?

Anyway, with apologies to all who've posted here (thank you, anyway ), and to the author of the poll which this one is mocking, I shall lock up here and let this nonsense die.
