It was an enormous surprise when they called me last Wednesday.
"Marin Alsop" is an United States/American conductor (music)/conductor and violinist.
She is the music director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra and principal conductor of the Orquestra Sinfônica do Estado de São Paulo/São Paulo State Symphony Orchestra.
More Marin Alsop on Wikipedia.I assumed there would be an influx of women on the podium, but there are not many more at my level than there were 20 years ago. Maybe boards don't want to hire women because they don't meet the archetypal image of the maestro.
It was a little like being in a hit-and-run accident.
I can't see that I'm going to be a much different person? I signed the contract.
