I’m not surprised; he’s a true pleasure to listen to. He says some things about conducting in this discussion that really enhanced my understanding of the art, ie everything from the first notes is done with the conclusion of the piece in mind and just simple things about why you even need a conductor and when a conductor became necessary in classical music (blame Beethoven). I’m looking forward to reading his book.
