Hann i’ ga ni’ sähe.
Habe ich gar nicht sehen (können).
I saw a few minutes of a previous round, but stopped watching when the conductor called the orchestra “you guys”.
PC alert, PC ALERT! Get out the pitchforks!
This competition is just ridiculous. The last thing to do – give her the first place. Best solution – no 1st place prize. 30 000 euros to BLM
‘Not Fair’?
Indeed.
It is a ridiculous competition to have during this covid period. Late qualifier? Is that even fair? And I can’t even imagine the other better conductors out there. This year’s participants are extremely disappointing.
Down to 3 contestants now for Saturday’s final, Thomas Jung, Finnegan Downie Dear, and Wilson Ng.
They are all…unimpressive conductors. Has anyone watched the live feed? Wilson has absolutely no idea what he was saying, simply waving his arms pretty, Dear looks like a scared kitten; Thomas Jung is probably the only decent one out there in the final.

She’s wonderful and she’s hot.
Give her the first prize.
