conductors god orchestra rolling seen stop stopped technique time
So many times, I've seen conductors that, every time they have a thought, they stop the orchestra and say it, and I can see the orchestra rolling their eyes and saying, 'Oh, God, he stopped again.' So there's a technique to rehearsing.
began besides early finds learning music time
Music is a continual learning process. One finds new insights all the time. For me, it began at a very early age; from the beginning, there was something besides the notes.
decides express ideal incredible kids learn music school teaching tool
Music is such an incredible tool for kids in general. They learn discipline; they learn how to express themselves. You learn math. You learn language. It's the ideal teaching tool, and that's why it's mind-boggling when any school superintendent decides that music is something we can kind of do without.
feeling music
Music - you need the give and take from the audience, the feeling of attention. It's not about me: it's about the music itself.

My father was - actually was an Episcopal priest as a young man. Became a psychotherapist, a psychologist. My mother is Jewish, so I grew up in a mixed background.

I love celebrating music in different and unique ways.

I happen to love Saint-Saens in general. I think he's a brilliant composer and sometimes underrated in a way because people like to pass him off as fluffy and not being serious.
comment people youtube
If I read every comment on my YouTube videos, I'd go crazy with people that are saying negative things.

conductor liked music orchestra
The orchestra confides in me about their music director or their conductor, and I've never seen a conductor that's been liked by everyone.
movement repeat second seventh symphony
