I Have A Big Problem With Conductors

Its Just That, When The Orchestra Look At Me, I Want Them To See A Completely Involved Person Who Reflects What We Rehearsed, And Whose Function Is To Make It Possible For Them To Do It.

Great Cataclysmic Things Can Go By And Neither The Orchestra Nor The Conductor Are Under The Delusion That Whether They Make This Or That Gesture Is Going To Be The Deciding Factor In How It Comes Out.

Fate Is A Misplaced Retreat. Many People Rationalize An Unexplained Event As Fate And Shrug Their Shoulders When It Occurs. But That Is Not What Fate Is. The World Operates As A Series Of Circles That Are Invisible, For They Extend To The Upper Air. Fate Is Where These Circles Cut To Earth. Since We Cannot See Them, Do Not Know Their Content, And Have No Sense Of Their Width, It Is Impossible To Predict When These Cuts Will Slice Into Our Reality. When This Happens, We Call It Fate. Fate Is Not A Chance Event But One That Is Inevitable, We Are Simply Blind To Its Nature And Time.

I Can Imagine Wanting To Work With This Ensemble And This Company Always.

A Lot Of People Get Impatient With The Pace Of Change.
