And If You Are Strong Enough, Then

And I Always Tried To Be Not A Star. To Be Someone Who People Like To Talk To.

I Can Go In Front Of An Orchestra. I Can Go In Front Of An Audience. But If You See Me Walking Through An Audience In The Reception Or Through A Lot Of People, I'm Still Shy.

And At The Same Time, I Had My Very First Concert At The Age Of 16. I Hadn't Heard A Symphony Orchestra Before, And I Was So Deeply Impressed I Said I Have To Be A Conductor.

You Know As I Started As A Shy Young Conductor, I Always Wanted To Cooperate. To Build Up The Musicians. To Help Them To Be Better Than Without A Conductor. And Sometimes Young Talented Musicians Have To Be Encouraged.

In South America, I Heard The 8th Symphony Of Beethoven. And The Young Conductor Thought, Beethoven Must Be Heroic. But This Is Piece Which Shouldn't Be Heroic. And This Was Such A Misunderstanding, Such A Deep Misunderstanding.
