Without fact-checking myself, I believe it was Mahler who, from his lofty position as arbiter of everything musical, decreed that audiences shall no longer applaud between movements.
I used to scoff and look down my nose when people did it. Then I realized that it was the sound of new audience members, which we desperately need. So now, I kind of applaud THEM. :-)
