I Love To Travel, But Sometimes It's

It's A Physical Challenge. It's A Spiritual Challenge. I'm Studying Almost Every Day A Different Symphony, Not Returning To Any One For A Week.

It's Not That People Don't Like Classical Music. It's That They Don't Have The Chance To Understand And To Experience It.

In My Imagination Yes, I Remember, When I Was Six Years Old, I Was Conducting All This Concert In My House. But Now It's Real.

For Me To Rehearse With A Children's Orchestra A Mahler Symphony Was To Really Work. We Had Three Or Four Weeks Of Rehearsal With The Orchestra, Every Day Eight Or Nine Hours, Putting The First Together. I Had Been Conducting Tchaikovsky A Lot And Beethoven, But Mahler Was Different.

I Think The Atmosphere Of A Prom Concert Can Change Your Life, In The Best Way. It's So Deep, The Feeling You Have There. The Audience Is So Close, And There Are So Many Of Them, That You Feel They Are Almost Embracing You.
