That reminds me:
I once was at a performance of a big symphony orchestra and choir, who performed a symphony by Gustav Mahler (professionals on a *big* stage). At one point the conductor
stopped the performance, turned around to the audience and said: "We can do that better (Das können wir besser)." Then he started again with the movement where he had broken off. That impressed me very much, I thought it was much more professional than somehow awkwardly trying to rescue the performance that had gone wrong.
