The nicest world-class, old school conductor I ever met was Bruno
Walter. For years, I thought the nastiest was Fritz Reiner. My father
played with the Chicago Symphony when I was a boy and I attended
rehearsals from time to time. I thought these sessions were pretty neat
until the day Reiner screamed at my dad for missing a cue. That scared
the geewhillikers out of me and steered me away from music as a career.
