Leadership, in music and in life, begins with listening.
I often think about how the arts have shaped my life, not as one straight path, but as a series of discoveries. Before I ever stood on a podium, I was an electric guitarist, learning music through energy, instinct, and the physical vibration of sound. Later, conducting opened another world: architecture, form, memory, gesture, and the deep responsibility of bringing musicians into a shared act of listening. What has stayed constant is the belief that music is never just sound. It is narrative. It is emotion and intellect. It is a way of understanding the world through the body, the mind, and the imagination. Every time I conduct, I feel that the arts are not separate from life. They shape how we listen, how we collaborate, how we take risks, and how we build meaning together.
