I saw the Czech chamber orchestra (??the exact name is fuzzy by now) when they were on tour in the early seventies. They had something like 30-40 players, and no conductor; just the concert master to start things off. They had a tighter cleaner ensemble than most orchestras of that size seem to be able to achieve *with* a conductor. The music and interpretation was pretty conventional, but impeccably performed.
