Classical Court From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here. |

In Reply to: I suspect I see more of them on local programs than you do posted by Chris from Lafayette on August 29, 2021 at 12:09:09:
KCS performances, but have yet to experience a Chinese selection. Same story in Eugene where your favorite female musician, Marin A, wielded the baton. Neither of her successors selected Asian composers, either, as I recall.
I wonder if you've wondered about the paucity of female conductors/directors in major orchestras? And Asians? There is so much diversity among "the ranks," now, that it is a little glaring that none have broken that ceiling, save for Alsop. I don't mean guest conducting, special program gigs, or the like. I mean permanent positions with major orchestras.
