"The first function there is to show your love for the music."
Tom interviews the Canadian conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin, who currently holds music director posts at the Philadelphia Orchestra, Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and the Orchestre Métropolitain in Montréal. He talks about the cross-fertilisation process that comes with working with different orchestras; about getting out 100% from all of the players in his ensembles; about his responsibilities at Philadelphia, where he oversees aspects beyond music, like marketing; and about working with orchestras to serve their respective communities, securing their future in the process.
