The conductor as a processor amd facilitator of interactive flow of (musical) information. This was so packed with information and insights that I am certain it went over the heads of most of the audience. Very impressive. It bears relistening.
Bravo, Maestro. It would be easy and convenient to believe that art can stand alone and speak for itself on its own merits. It is actually more crucial than ever for artists to go public, educate, and articulately describe their world as it relates to the human experience. Thank you for setting this authentic and inspiring example.
What a great and new way to view conducting! I am merely a choir Director, but have always been inspired by Conductors, especially you! I hope to be able to share with my choir just a small portion of what you have so eloquently presented here.
