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

RE: Yo-Yo Ma w/Carlos Miguel Prieto conducting the CSO @ Symphony Hall

I first met Carlos Miguel Prieto around a decade ago, and have met also his father, who is an internationally famous cellist. On one occasion, it was really fun seeing them in concert together, junior conducting while dad played the Shostakovich 1st cello concerto. Carlos Miguel has teamed up with Yo-Yo Ma before. I saw them do the Dvorak CC together around 7 years ago.

I have fond memories of being present in the home of a friend, sitting in his music room, listening to Carlos Miguel on violin, Carlos senior on cello, and his uncle on viola, playing string trios late into the night.

Carlos Miguel earned an engineering degree from Princeton and an MBA from Harvard. But music is in his blood. He conducted the Harvard Symphony while a student there.

Carlos Miguel is the real deal. A better musician than "the dude" and one of the best young conductors around these days.
