Conductor Bill Eddins posted an intriguing article at Sticks And Drones on 7/15/2014 titled Dear Mr. Gelb… that examines the notion of The Met’s claims of being too big for its own good from a very different perspective. I won’t spoil it for you but Eddins has no problem pointing a finger squarely at the institution’s leadership.
What makes the post interesting is Eddins’ approach of using narrative example as opposed to direct analysis. So go, read, process, and see if it makes you see The Met’s all but assured season of sadness in a different perspective.

It certainly was a refreshing change of pace from the typical observational commentary, wasn’t it?
