"If you go to Japan for instance, you should know that they have a different way of playing Beethoven or Brahms. But if you play with them Mozart, Debussy, Mendelssohn, they have a wonderful light feeling for that."
Feelings
"Since the composer has said everything, if you discover everything, it will be enough and you will be a happy man. Don't try to say it's your taste, and because of that you are changing this or that. And I must say this respect is still there."
Man
"And at the same time, I had my very first concert at the age of 16. I hadn't heard a symphony orchestra before, and I was so deeply impressed I said I have to be a conductor."
Age
"I was different from most young conductors today."
Today
"Very often, if I know the orchestra doesn't know a piece or it's a new piece, I have main ideas about it. But then we start to play and I never talk about places where they played so beautiful and so clear in the beginning that there is nothing to say."
Ideas
"I always imagined that to bring an orchestra to play together is not enough for a conductor."
Play
"And to understand this, I think this is a most important point where I would like always to be understood what we do with the New York Philharmonic. That the meaning of the music is number one."
Music
"An orchestra full of stars can be a disaster."
Disaster
"I wouldn't say I've changed my mind. I changed some of my natural habits, some of my natural character."
Character
"Young conductors who are confident enough, they very often have success."
