  • Andrew, That was magnificent! As a colleague, I think you showed so much passion for this piece. I would purchase a full fare ticket to the LSO just to hear this single opus. Barber was a master of writing human emotion. Thank you for sharing. Bravo!

  • The conductor is the director, the musicians follow his lead and tempo, he isnt just "dancing"..

  • Beautiful... nothing too much, nothing too less. Everything in its right time, even the great pause after minute 7... wonderful. The expression of the hands, the face and the overall body... this is what musicians expect from a conductor.

  • Thing I like about him is he follows the music. I mean I know music conductors do that but when you actually see it and you appreciate it's beauty and form then it hits you more.. Especially if you are like me who blends emotions and feelings with the music I listen to...

  • absolutely beautiful

  • This is out of sync with the directors movements.

  • Amazing... I'm a big big fan of this adágio... for me is on of the most amazing pieces ever made... And brilliant the way it was conducted here... Congratulations for this wonderfull moment!

    What? Are you kidding? I know I was kidding... because the truth is, it really only is an electromagnetic noise affecting the camera's lecture.

    And I'm Agnostic, I don't yet believe in God, so your theory holds no truth to me.

    It's God you dumbass.

  • Thank you, Maestro Lyon, for your insight on this piece. Aloha from a violist on Maui, Hawaii
