It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Surprised this hasn't already been mentioned, but R.I.P. Gunther Schuller.

I saw this news earlier too. Although I've never been a conductor myself, I consider this book absolutely essential reading for any would-be musician:



Whether one agrees with Schuller or not, he states clearly and convincingly what ought to be considered in presenting a musical work (whether you're a conductor or not) and how far from the ideal most musicians - even the very famous ones (or, especially the very famous ones!) - fall. It's an eye- and ear-opener for sure.
