“All orchestras are special to me in their own way, they are all very different, each one brings something of its own, and it is up to conductors to sense it. We have to find the right way to bring the best out of the orchestra and create art. (…) I absolutely agree with Karajan's opinion that the very first rehearsal is the most important for the successful development of an orchestra.”
