Whenever I Listen To A Children's Orchestra,

You Have To Believe That Things Will Happen, You Have To Work And Love What You're Doing.

I Love To Read Different Books On Completely Different Subjects At The Same Time. I Cannot Focus On One. I Read A Few Pages Of Literature, Then I Jump To Philosophy And At The Same Time I'm Reading Biographies Of Mahler.

I Think It's A Very Important Collaboration Between The Conductor And The Orchestra - Especially When The Conductor Is One More Member Of The Orchestra In The Way That You Are Leading, But Also Respecting, Feeling And Building The Same Way For All The Players To Understand The Music.

Recently, I Went To A Disco With Friends, And All The Young People Were Saying, 'dudamel, We Want To Go To Your Concert, But It's Impossible Because It's Sold Out.' It's Really Amazing.

Los Angeles Is A Very Special City. It's A Great Ethnic Mix, A Great Cultural Mix.
