What Makes Him Great? - EDGE New York Interviews Rob Kapilow

EDGENewYork.com has just published a feature on lecturer, commentator, conductor and 10-year Celebrity Series fixture, Rob Kapilow. Among the quotes writer Michael Sherrin snared from amongst the high-speed rat-a-tat of Rob's connections and digressions was this about his basic impulse to do what he does the way he does it:

“The first thing was every time I would rehearse the orchestra,
I’d want to stop and do a lecture on the piece,” says Kapilow. “And every time I
would be teaching, I would wish I had the orchestra there to demonstrate. So
it’s always been a feeling that when I would conduct music, that I would always
wish I could turn around and make sure people were getting what it was.”
