With regard to the Keith Lockhart review in the Deseret News: Salt Lake City has two newspapers, just like Boston (although I doubt that one of them is printed in a distant City) , and the other paper, the Salt Lake Tribune, offered a more "balanced" review. The writer of that review stated that Lockhart's tempi for the third, or 'adagio' movement, were too rushed. Perhaps his Pops experience has led him to believe audiences won't sit still for L-O-N-G stretches of music.
