This Interplay digs into the remarkable work being done by five extraordinary conductors at our universities: James Tapia (Syracuse University), Mathias Elmer (Virginia Tech), Carolyn Watson (University of Kansas), Kevin Suetterlin (Concordia College), James Allen Anderson (University of Delaware). Our talk is a big longer than usual, but these five maestri have insights and an attention for what they do that is infectious and soul redeeming. I just love these fine musicians for their creativity and caring - a special Conversation In Music!
