It looked like they had "only" about 300-350 people on stage in Tanglewood.  I think the original score called for about 750, at least that is how many Jascha Horenstein had on stage in the Royal Albert Hall in 1959.  He also had about 6000 people in the audience, and at least half of them were coughing or sneezing at any given time, judging from the BBC Classics live CD reissue.

Cheers,
JJ
