Kate Molleson presents a new series of in-depth conversations with artists appearing at the 麻豆社 Proms, creating space for thoughtful reflection on their musical lives and creative work. Today Kate talks to Sir Antonio Pappano. Fresh from conducting Berlioz's Requiem at the 麻豆社 Proms, the London Symphony Orchestra's Chief Conductor reflects on identity, conducting, music education and the future of classical music. One of the most admired musicians of his generation, he discusses growing up between Britain and America, the special relationship between conductor and orchestra, his passion for sharing music with audiences, and his belief that every concert should feel like an event.
