I will prove that a great conducting career is expecting me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Basically speaking, conducting is quite a healthy profession.
My music wouldn't sound the way it does if I hadn't had the experience of conducting.
I guess, as a conductor, one goes in and out of fashion. Your career starts with a bang, everyone thinks you're wonderful, and then with middle age, something happens and you go into the wilderness.
Young conductors who are confident enough, they very often have success.
People still call me the eternal amateur. After all, professionals are supposed to be able to conduct everything. But I can't unless I feel some connection inside. Conducting is not an end in itself for me.
The real art of conducting consists in transitions.
I love conducting. What I'm tired of is music administration. I don't want that. I just want to make music.
I played with the best conductors of the world.
I like to create the music I hear in my interior. As a conductor, you have the ability to squeeze the sounds and interpretation you asked for from 50 to 80 people.
Conducting is a strange thing to teach.
