I have such a strong memory of watching Gianandrea conducting Mahler 9 at the BBC Proms some years ago, even on TV it came jumping out of the screen. My friends had all gone to the pub but I wanted to see the Mahler so I joined them later. What I told them about it was the image that lasted in my mind. It was a warm evening and at the end of the symphony Gianandrea held the baton still for several seconds with his eyes lowered, this prevented the audience from the often annoying instant applause you get at the end of a long work, and as he stood still drops of sweat just dripped off his nose. His passion, and effort and the understanding of the piece seemed conveyed so humanly in that moment. Great interview. Thanks.
Wow. Enjoyed and absorbed that more and better than I can say. A conductor of genuine humility while being a splendid musician, and of course Mr Bognár, wise and sensitive as ever. Thank you very much indeed. Will have to watch and absorb this again. Top marks.
I echo many of the comments posted, magnificent and appreciation. I also enjoy listening and watching this and others of the series and enjoy the hand and body language. Truly gives evidence and reinforcement of the conversation. Thank you!
Zsolt, the wonderful quality of your interviews seems to based on the feeling that your questions are never "pro forma" but rather ones that you yourself are really desperate to explore and understand in order to be an even better musician. If there is such a thing as a musician whose instrument is the human soul and spirit, then you are conducting master classes. Thank you. 🙏
Thanks for this wonderful interview and so many other great interviews you have done! I also enjoyed listening to Joshua Weilerstein's recent interview of you. Your quiet demeanor and the depth of your approach to another musician coaxes them to reveal their unique insights into living the classical life. Thank you for your beautiful work!
I really loved this enterview! He is so clear and humble when talk about his own process and how important ia the new generation. Here in Brazil, sadly, the conservatories and music schools are só desconected from the audience, that makes the impression that this kind of music is only for the rich people. I hope to help in a few years to bring more choral música to my neighborhood. Thank you for this enterview!
I absolutely love this series and this was a brilliant interview. Do you know if it might be coming out as a podcast anytime soon? It's brilliant as it is on RUclips but would be amazing on a service such as Spotify in this format!
We're saving up our pennies and working to convert our episodes into podcasts as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your encouragement, Asher Rubenstein!
I was fortunate enough to live in DC during Noseda's first year as Maestro of the NSO. He is delightful, and you can see the connection between him and the musicians. They renewed his contract through 2025!
