Episode 121 - Nicholas McGegan

Having played for Nicholas on many occasions, I knew he would be fun to chat with given his ebullient nature. I also found out how open and honest he is and also how much he has thought about his craft! With many anecdotes and stories, I heard his thoughts on many conductors, both past and present, we discussed how important it is as a conductor to ”read the room”, and I discover what he has in common with David Beckham!
