My Take

James Conlon strikes me as one of those conductors whose stature you only fully grasp once you tally the institutions that trusted him. A Manhattan native trained at the High School of Music & Art, now music director of LA Opera and principal conductor of the RAI National Symphony, he has spent decades doing the loneliest job in music: making hundreds of musicians breathe as one. I admire that kind of sustained command. Conductors rarely get the celebrity they deserve, yet the discipline and emotional intelligence behind a long career like his is, to me, genuinely awe-inspiring.
