Conductors' careers are made for the most part with 'Romantic' music. 'Classic' music eliminates the conductor; we do not remember him in it. ↗

I'm sure some people have an absolute grasp of where they are in their careers. I just don't think about it that much. ↗

All ballplayers want to wind up their careers with the Cubs, Giants or Yankees. They just can't help it. ↗
