Eotvos is one of a kind. He is so low-key. Otherwise he'd be better known to a greater public.
In addition to being a composer and a conductor mostly known for conducting new music, he recorded my favorite version of Beethoven Symphony #5.

If so, what did you think of their use of amplification?

Yes, this is the one.
You won't truly "hear" the amplifications, per se. Everything sounds as natural as can be. What you will hear is the clarity and balance of every section of the orchestra. No "walls of sound". The result is just perfect (for me).

Part of the tragedy of the Palestinians is that they have essentially no international support for a good reason: they've no wealth, they've no power, so they've no rights.
