Ormandy called his librarian at all hours with his additions to scores. Philly's librarian would turn off his phone at night so the Maestro would not disturb him after 11PM.
Some conductors can go nuts when they have the power to change the music

How many guys have had to play souped-up Brahms or Beethoven? Raise your hands
