LOL. Wonderful. Such an amazing person and so elegant and aristocratic. One of a kind and, sadly, an extinct species. Happy 90th Maestro!
“One of a kind and, sadly, an extinct species.”
He’s not dead yet.
Par excellence!!!!! Thanks Maestro!!!!!
So lucky to have had a chance to see him in SF. His ability to bring the magic was fun to hear; he even made Bruckner 4 sound exciting (live, at least).
That’s just wonderful! Happy birthday dear Maestro!
Speaking of which….. we read so much nonsense about conductors in so many comments on this blog. Don’t forget one: Maestro is someone you can learn from.
That’s why Mr. Blomstedt is one of the few who can really be called Maestro.
