Kids Need To Be Structured In Some

Conducting Is A Strange Thing To Teach.

When You Play A Violin Piece, You Are A Storyteller, And You're Telling A Story.

I Want To Do Everything. That's My Problem.

I Think If There's Ever Been A Time We Need Music More, It's Now. For Our Kids, It Teaches You To Take Time, To Listen, To Work Together, To Listen To Other People, And To Use Your Brain. That's Why Classical Music Doesn't Work When You Throw It At People In A Subway Platform While They're Rushing To Work. Classical Music Is Something That Needs To Be Contemplated, You Have To Be Completely Present With An Active Mind That's Working. It's Not Background Music.

There's Nothing More Frustrating Than Seeing A Conductor Say, 'play Softer,' As They're Waving Their Hands In Huge Gestures.
