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!
