I Have A Big Problem With Conductors

I Grew Up In An Era Where An Orchestra Was Like A Treasure Chest.

A Lot Of People Get Impatient With The Pace Of Change.

And So, Little By Little, I Gradually Divested Myself Of Pretty Nearly All Of The Guest Conducting I Used To Do, Because I Was At The Same Time Working In The Places Like The Met, Where I Could Work In This Sort Of Depth.

But The Important Thing Is To Lie Down And Fall Asleep. That Little Nap Means You Wake Up Fresh Again And Can Continue.

I Think This Orchestra's Strengths Involve Drama And Voice.
