An Orchestra Full Of Stars

As I Came To New York, It Was For Me A New Beginning. To Discover What People Are Living Here. What Do They Need, What Do They Expect, What Would They Like To Be The Image And The Performance Of The New York Philharmonic?

And At The Same Time, I Had My Very First Concert At The Age Of 16. I Hadn't Heard A Symphony Orchestra Before, And I Was So Deeply Impressed I Said I Have To Be A Conductor.

If Every School Would Hire Two More Music Teachers, We Would Need Two Fewer Police Officers.

I Can Go In Front Of An Orchestra. I Can Go In Front Of An Audience. But If You See Me Walking Through An Audience In The Reception Or Through A Lot Of People, I'm Still Shy.

And If You Are Strong Enough, Then You Can Grow As A Conductor More And More.
