We taught him everything he knows
Robert is a conductor who actually gives the cues that he promises to give. He did flawless performances of "Nixon in China" and "Powder her Face" during his tenure in Brooklyn. These are very , very difficult works. Robert's Mahler 2nd Symphony performances in Brooklyn was world-class. I met the kid,Dave Krauss, at these performances. He was in the off-stage group. He was still a student.
Watch Bob Spano, he is the real deal.......and a nice guy.
