Talk:Conductor

Sigh...here we are trying to minimise red links. You of all people.

By and large, your choice of conductors is fairly Mozartian as I would expect from you. I suspect, however that Paul Phillips, who I don't know, is a bus conductor. Busoni, perhaps. AlanE 01:47, 26 March 2015 (EDT)

Well, I admit that I screwed up. Mostly by wrongly assuming that you had put in the three that were already listed, so I assumed that you had planned to de-red them. Not so. Sorry. I took out Paul Phillips, who seems to be conductor of the Brown (Rhode Island, USA) University orchestra--not sufficiently notable. There's also a famous poker player by that name. I couldn't figure out Antonio Baptista at all. I do know who Daniel Barenboim is. And his late wife.

And, of course, I plead guilty to the Mozartian-centrism of it all. I just picked up a handful of CDs off the top of my overflow stack and started typing. SamHB 02:06, 26 March 2015 (EDT)

One of the great tragedies is that Mozart didn't write something for Jaquie to play (solo, that is.) Brahms did. [(Had to get that one in, didn't I.) Baremboim would be rather up the nose of certain Conservapedia types with his Arab-Israeli orchestra and general liberalness.

Enough!! I am trying to watch the cricket. Such an unimportant little game. This match alone is being watched by well over a billion people. AlanE 02:34, 26 March 2015 (EDT)
