Symphonic orchestras have almost become a glut in the market.

Ergo, because of the money problem, it is probable that our orchestras will soon go down in quality.

I endeavor that all orchestras I conduct sound Central European.

Orchestras are not used to playing the kind of stuff jazz musicians like to play. It requires a lot of rehearsal and recording time, so it's much easier to do on a synth or sampler. So, we came up with that idea.

I will never master this craft. Orchestras are very, very forthcoming with me.

In the history of pop music, a lot of great records cost an enormous amount of money. There used to be a time where people that had means to experiment would do it, you know?

One time I introduced my orchestra as the Shampoo Music Makers instead of the Champagne Music Makers.

But still as compared to many, many orchestras in the world, I think you find a lot more new music and living composers on our programs than many other places.

I also work with the regular orchestras in Munich, Germany and other similar orchestras.
