Episode 114 - Leslie Suganandarajah

Some interviews feel good from the very start and my chat with Leslie Suganandarajah felt like that immediately - such a thoughtful and humble person to chat with! We agree that conducting opera when you cannot actually see the singers is extremely difficult, he told me which specific rehearsal always gives him ”goosebumps”, and I hear how, at an early age, a dentist changed his life!
