truth
Listen, I will now tell you the truth and there is no other.
soul rays music-is
Mozart's music is like an X-ray of your soul - it shows what is there, and what isn't.
musical musician bad-music
There are more bad musicians than there is bad music.
making-love music-is
Music is like making love: either all or nothing.
music teacher flower
I have a responsibility to pass on to the next generation what I learned from my teachers, ... It keeps me young and reminds me where I came from. Teaching young artists is like giving water to a flower.
failure grows experiments
It is only through failure and through experiment that we learn and grow.
communication want force
A conductor has to know how to translate music into a communicative force that makes the listener want to hear what he has to say.
years young known
I have known Ori Kam for several years and have always regarded him as an extraordinarily talented young mucisian.
gloves cashmere wells
Playing a concerto with Zubin is like being surrounded by a well-loved, cashmere-lined silk glove.
simple careers mirrors
Outsiders always look for a reason to explain why they are not inside. They never look in the mirror. Let's face it, the profession I'm in is a very simple and a very cruel one. There is no way that you can create a career for someone without talent and no way to stop a career of someone with talent.
