TALK SHOW
Interviewer: "Why did you start conducting, Maestro?"
Maestro: "Well, Bob, I just LOVE to beat! I'd do it all day if I could. Beating, that's why I got into it; that's what turns me on about conducting. That and the money."
Interviewer: "What else do you like about conducting?"
Maestro: "Well, Bob, when I am not beating, I really like to talk to the orchestra, you know, explain things."
Interviewer: "Like what, Maestro?"
Maestro: "I like to tell them how great a piece is, and how much Beethoven has meant to me personally. Then I especially like to tell them when something sounds really bad. And then I like to have them do the passage over and over again. With my beat. Did I tell you, Bob, how much I like to beat?"
