Everybody blames the culture without taking responsibility.
I grew up in an era where an orchestra was like a treasure chest.
I have a big problem with conductors who gesture a lot.
I was lucky that I met the right mentors and teachers at the right moment
My hunch is that probably men are doing more both outside the home and inside the home
It wasn't that I ever knew I'd be at the Met for 20 years, or 30 years, or 40 years, or anything like that
