Yes, TGR, I meant born in the US. In the musical world, this is definitely what would be meant by referring to someone as an American conductor. There have been very few world class ones from the US.
Interestingly, many of the young up and comers are from South America. They are training them VERY well down there, and some of my conductor friends are convinced that in a couple of more decades, almost all of the big names will be South American.
