Episode 140 - Baldur Brönnimann

I really enjoyed this interview! Baldur Brönnimann and I got along instantly and we seem to have very similar views about what we do and how we do it. There was also a lot of laughter as well... We had a serious discussion about the need for orchestras in the cultural life of any country, we discussed why conducting is subjective and that we should be talking about this when we teach, and a chat about conducting with or without a baton breaks down in fits of laughter!
