"What do you do?"
"I'm a conductor."
"Like, on a train?"
"No. An orchestra conductor."
"Cool. What do you do for a living?"
"I'm an orchestra conductor."
"When you wave your arms around, does that mean anything?"
"Does any of this mean anything?"

Why does @FanDuelSN_SW kick me out of my stream of the @spurs game while I’m watching it? I’m paying for this app, @FanDuelSN_Help! Right now, the game is unavailable while you air the postgame show, spoiling the final score while I was watching the 3rd qtr #Ripoff

There's lots to love in @MeanGirls, but the stunning highpoint is Auliʻi Cravalho (once the voice of Moana) singing "I'd Rather Be Me." Her performance is electric on its own, and the choreography and camera work are astonishing. I was giddy with delight.

Looking forward to guest conducting the @SAPhilharmonic in this free Diez y Seis Celebration Concert, marking the anniversary of Mexican independence from Spain in 1810.

Great story about the important, transformational work of @EquityArc & Stanford Thompson

One of the best things musicians can do for their mental health is working on feeling earnest joy for other musicians when they win an opportunity. Being ambitious is good, but viewing everybody as competition will break you down over the years.

[Troy Peters @TroyPetersMusic]

Among the many things I owe to my teacher, Ned Rorem: an abiding love for the elegant music of Jean Françaix.
