It's all those things, you know, it's 63 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: really terrific. 64 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: We're working with the best of the best at the 65 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: San Francisco Symphony, Like they are the best, you're the best. 66 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: You put them together and the product has got to 67 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: just be incredible. I cannot wait to experience this. 68 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: But that's our goal. We get to the fun part 69 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 2: of doing I think, and you'll experience a different part 70 00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: of doing these shows is that you don't just do 71 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: it once. You can do it four times, right, So 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: you get to hear your favorite song four times, and 73 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: you get to hear the favorite dance, the favorite like 74 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: moment four times. Right. So I think you're gonna have 75 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: a lot of fun. I think you're gonna have a ball. 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: Actually, what do you think the one thing is that 77 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: I will experience since you have been the narrator for 78 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: the past ten years, the one thing is that I 79 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,679 Speaker 1: will experience. It will surprise me in a good way. 80 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: Oh, that's a great question. In a good way. I 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 2: think it's when we get to the school audience on 82 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 2: the Monday, those kids, like how they respond differently than 83 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: the kids with their parents. It's a lot. It's different. 84 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 2: It's different, like the Sunday is more even though it's 85 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: with kids still it's more like they're also times out 86 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 2: with that, but you get more of like a kid's reaction, 87 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 2: so they just have this more like is an immediacy 88 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 2: of reaction to everything that's happening with those kids. And 89 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: that's super fun. Also, just you know, text, you can 90 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 2: make it your own. I was getting up there, you know, 91 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 2: for ten years basically just like okay, I'm going to 92 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 2: talk about like this and just like kind of going right, 93 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 2: and I have my set things that would say so, 94 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 2: but so you can really like put it into your 95 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: own voice. And I'm going to be doing the same 96 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 2: thing with my bits as well too.

You can make it your own. 99 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: That's what I love too, is I think a lot 100 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: of people think about the symphony and I think it's 101 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: very formal. It's very polished, and it's like this performance 102 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: or these performances, I get the impression without even doing 103 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: this yet that not that it's laid back, but you 104 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: do have the freedom to share your own voice, to 105 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: have some fun with it.

So 118 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: that's like the only thing to keep in mind is 119 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: that we're trying to keep them like okay, and now 120 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 2: our journey begins and then and then we're and then 121 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 2: we're all so we're not breaking like the whatever that 122 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: you will know better than I will like that, but 123 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, So sorry I did say anything. 124 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: I'm just like, you can read my mind. You're fine, 125 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: but I think. 126 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: You know what you're saying too, it's like I am 127 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: taking them on a journey. We are telling a story together. Yeah, 128 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: I'm kind of teeing you up for you guys to 129 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: come in and boom hit the story that I'm kind 130 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: of introducing, and then you come right in with your performance. 131 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: I love it because in a way, while I'm not 132 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: playing an instrument, I am sort of a vocalist strut 133 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: with you guys, you know, And so I absolutely think 134 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: it's kind of paranisely. I just can't get over that 135 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: you did both of these things for so many years, 136 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: because I think as a performer, you're really focusing on 137 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: your specific craft. There's a lot going on. And even 138 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: though like for me, the narration in between performances is, 139 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: you know, twenty to thirty seconds, I am very focused 140 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: on the words, how I'm going to deliver it, you 141 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: know what it's going to sound like. And then for you, 142 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: when you were doing this in the past, you're focused 143 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: on those things, and then you turn around and you 144 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: conduct the symphony, which is so crazy because that's even bigger, 145 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: and so how you balance both is beyond me. 146 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: So my secret is that I was a junior high 147 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 2: school music teacher for ten years, right, and then I 148 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: also to high school a little bit after that, so 149 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 2: I didn't start off as a conductor. I started off 150 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 2: as a teacher. And when you're teaching, you're doing seven 151 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:57,679 Speaker 2: or eight shows a day, right of talk, turnaround, conduct, talk, show, 152 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: display video, like, so this is actually like that, it's 153 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 2: super normal, super normal for my finest Yeah, and you're 154 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 2: and it's improv as well too, because you know in 155 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: terms of like the time and this doesn't happen in 156 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: the concerts, right, But it's like you might say, Okay, 157 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: I have four and a half classes to get through this, 158 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: and then I had the after ready for the test 159 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 2: and the third class, oh there's a fire drill, sudden 160 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: fire drill. You just lost that class. So now you 161 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: have three and a half and you had everything down 162 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: and you just got to make it work, right. So 163 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: that's so that's the thing. It's just like when you're teaching, 164 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: you are you're performing, you conduct and then you and 165 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 2: then you talk, and you're doing it seven times a day, 166 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: not just two shows, right, and it really is it 167 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 2: really is music seven shows a day, And thinking of teaches. 168 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 2: During the pandemic, I knew a guy who was an 169 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 2: elementary school teacher, and he showed me what he was 170 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 2: doing online over the pandemic, and it literally was like 171 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: producing a television show for seven hours a day for kindergarten. 172 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: And I thought, I don't know how stayed alive. 173 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: So the teaching. 174 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: Part of it, the teaching part of it, really really 175 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: helps a lot with that. And I love it. I 176 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: love it. I like I like explaining. I love talking 177 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 2: about music. I have a radio like I'm on CBC 178 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: Radio in Canada as well as that's just the talking. 179 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: So sometimes I just conduct, sometimes I just talk, and 180 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 2: most of the time I talk and conduct. 181 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: You are a true artist. I mean you have your 182 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 1: hands in so many different things, which I love. I mean, 183 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: is your brain just constantly spinning and creating and imagining? Yes, yes, 184 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: that's the best. 185 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: Constantly. Yeah it is. It's a little tiring. I'm trying 186 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: to learn how to sw down, but then that becomes 187 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 2: its own thing. It's like, okay, how do I optimize 188 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: and maximize by slowing down? And how do I recover 189 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 2: the bend? You know, everything becomes its own, its own 190 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: WorldWind universe. 191 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 1: Do you feel like you're a little bit type a 192 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: as a creator? 193 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh a thousand percent me too. 194 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: I'm always thinking.

And 199 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: what would I do differently? And how can I know? 200 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 2: What do you do? 201 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 3: Like? 202 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: How do you how do you do you turn it 203 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: off ever?

Yeah, 208 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: you know, and so it's kind of don't make that 209 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: much of an effort to turn it off because I 210 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: truly enjoy it. 211 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: See that's great, that's great.

Now. 216 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: Some would say your work on like a weekend or 217 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,119 Speaker 1: you're working over time, but for you, it's a hobby 218 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: that you just so happen to get paid for. 219 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm saying hobby. It's more like 220 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: a like obsession. It's more like an obsession that like. 221 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it is for me too, and I 222 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: just call it a hobby to make myself feel better, 223 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: but it's really an obsession. Okay, fair, fair, we've all 224 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: done something there. 225 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: I feel like it's yeah, I would like there are 226 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: some performances that I've seen where I get to the 227 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: performance and I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm so glad 228 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: I'm already a conductor or I'm already a musician, because 229 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: after that performance, if I wasn't, I would have probably 230 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 2: quit whatever I was doing and try to become this. 231 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 232 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 2: Wow, So that's that's a really That's why I'm like, Okay, 233 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: I'm in the right I'm in the right place. I 234 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 2: remember being a university and just I took because I 235 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 2: had my music, and then I had my other options 236 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: and stuff. It's like some psychology and philosophy and something 237 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: that right, but I kind of got tired of those. 238 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 2: But I just remember being in music and when I 239 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 2: was it's hard to describe. But when I was doing 240 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: music stuff, I never felt like I was doing anything. 241 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: It just felt like, yeah, this is just I'm just yeah, 242 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: this is just normal. This is just it just was 243 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: totally natural. It just felt totally natural to be doing 244 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 2: this all the time, you know. So I'm I think 245 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: I'm very very fortunate that way. 246 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: I think that's when you know you're doing what you're 247 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: supposed to be doing in life, though, when it just 248 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: feels right. I mean, how lucky are you to be 249 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: able to have that. You could be crunching numbers at 250 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: a desk all day, or you could be you know, 251 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: you're doing a job that is truly made for you, 252 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: and I can tell you have such an appreciation for 253 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: it too, which is. 254 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: So neat, I feel, especially when you look at it. 255 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: I get paid to come to San Francisco and conduct 256 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,719 Speaker 2: to San Francisco Symphony, which is it's just crazy, I know, 257 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 2: is crazy. No, And I still feel and I'm really 258 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 2: I'm happy that I feel. I think part of it 259 00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: is having started off as a teacher and not thinking, 260 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 2: you know, and being like maybe one day I'll be 261 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 2: a conductor. Right, That's where That's what was for a 262 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 2: long time and now I get to do this and 263 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 2: I feel very grateful still, and it's a really it's 264 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 2: a really it's a really good place to make music, 265 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: like for a young conductor. So you know, if the 266 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: musicians are fantastic and they're also really like you learn 267 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: so much from them, you know, they're they the musicians 268 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 2: are really your teachers. So yeah, So I have a 269 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: question for you just about like when you are doing 270 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 2: your announcements, what are what are you thinking about? Like 271 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 2: are you thinking about the effect of your voice or 272 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: are you feeling are you allowing yourself to feel and 273 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 2: letting it and actually be transmitted through or like how 274 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: does that work? 275 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: Are you talking about it the Giants when I'm announcing. 276 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well kind of like both, I guess, Like 277 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 4: the Giants first, I was thinking, particularly you're talking of 278 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 4: that many people it's live, you can't see, Like, what's 279 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 4: that like? 280 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: Well, when I'm talking to people live on the radio 281 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: that I can't see, it's a very different feeling than 282 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: when you're at the Giants and you've got forty thousand 283 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: people that are literally sitting in front of you in 284 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: a stadium. It's very different. The radio is more of 285 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: a natural delivery where we're just talking. And so if 286 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: my co host and I are having a conversation and 287 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: I trip over a word, well that's just a natural conversation, right. 288 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: But when you're doing the Giants and you're announcing for 289 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: the Giants, it's a little more polished, and you you 290 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: hear yourself make that mistake in a very large stadium 291 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: with forty thousand people that are going to hear your mistakes, 292 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: so you really there's like an added level of stress. 293 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: And that's not to say like if I stumble over 294 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: a word, which I have, that my career is over. 295 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: But as we will circle back to us being perfectionists 296 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: as performers, I drive home and it's a long drive 297 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: some nights, you know, it's like, how did I stumble 298 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: over that word? I knew? So I am more thinking 299 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: about overall when I'm especially at the Giants, I am 300 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: thinking I want to be a compliment to this. I 301 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: don't fans are not there to hear me, but I'm 302 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: there to inform them. I'm there to be a piece 303 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: of the big puzzle that is the show that we 304 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: are putting on at Giants Vision for the Giants, So 305 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: my thought is like, how can I just deliver this 306 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: so it's enjoyable for people to hear end of story. 307 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: It's that easy. And it's kind of the same with 308 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: the symphony, Like I'm not they're not there to see 309 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: the narrator. They're not there to see the conductor. The 310 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: people in the audience are there to see the whole thing, 311 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: the production, right, So how can we do the best 312 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: job we can do where we're just fitting in as 313 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: part of this production where the overall at the end 314 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: of this, people are going to leave and say that 315 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: was a fantastic performance by everybody, no matter what their 316 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: job was or what instruments overall, and I can't wait 317 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: to come back, Like that's the best the goal for me. 318 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: And that makes sense, That makes sense. I've never really 319 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: thought about that. The intimidation, like talking to forty thousand 320 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 2: and fifty thousand people at once. 321 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: But I love that you like flip the interview on me, 322 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: Oh you're such a radio guy. 323 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: Just it was genuinely curious of like what's that? 324 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: Like? 325 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: I love it. I love it.

Regards to Christmas, they're going to hear, 330 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 2: for example, like Christmas Carroll's Christmas songs. There'll be some 331 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 2: Christmas characters, some holiday characters, characters that come that comes through. 332 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 2: We have music from Chaikowsky, We have the Nutcracker from 333 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 2: the favorites there. But then we're all trying to take 334 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: a look at music from different parts of the world. 335 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: So we have some Latin American Christmas music. We have 336 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: a story that's going to be narrated by yourself was 337 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 2: the Night before Christmas? We have Christmas story that's coming through. There, 338 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: some gospel, we have some Hanukkah music as well too, 339 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 2: carols and like the old British style, the Sussex care 340 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 2: about the young Woman's coral project is gonna be fantastic. 341 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 2: And then we have music by the Trans Siberian Orchestra 342 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 2: a Christmas in Sarajevo, which is the Carrol of the Bells. 343 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 2: But there's a special twist. 344 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 3: I don't know. 345 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 2: I don't want to give away the surprise that we're 346 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 2: doing something we've never done before in terms of a 347 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: very special instrument that's going to be on stage. We've 348 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 2: never done before at this concert. So it's a concert 349 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 2: of it's all about like the stories of the holidays 350 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 2: from multiple perspectives, right, so that anybody can come and 351 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 2: hear music that they'll know, they'll love to recognize, and 352 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 2: stories that they'll know and stories that they don't know, right, 353 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 2: But that's what it's that's what it's about. So there's 354 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 2: something there for everybody, and it goes it goes down 355 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 2: pretty it goes pretty fast because there's there's dancing, there's storytelling, 356 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 2: there's different instruments from different countries on stage, so every 357 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 2: moment is different. Yeah, tons of variety for young kids. 358 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 2: That's what that's what it's for, you know. 359 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 1: I would imagine that the San Francisco Symphony also does 360 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: a incredible job of decorating for the holidays, where from 361 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: when you walk in the door, you feel that holiday spirit. 362 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: So this is one of the things where deck the 363 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: Hall is a shorter concert, you know, in the big 364 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 2: scope of things, but it's one of the most important 365 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,959 Speaker 2: in the season because this is where you know, the 366 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 2: hall is decked out and you go in, you see 367 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: the tree. It's the start of the holiday season at 368 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,959 Speaker 2: the San Francisco Symphony and it's been a tradition in 369 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 2: my life for ten years or so now, and it 370 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 2: really starts the holidays off. You walk into the hall 371 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 2: and you just you feel it. You feel it, so 372 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 2: it's a really special You know, music is not just about, 373 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 2: you know, just sound waves going through the air. It's 374 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 2: also about who you're with, you know, who's playing it 375 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 2: for you, and where you're hearing it. All of these 376 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 2: things affect the sound. So to be in the Davy's 377 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 2: Auditorium and hear the sound there with the incredible decorations, 378 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 2: it's an event. So it's more than just a feast 379 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 2: for the earth, but also a feast for the eyes. 380 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 2: And it's a whole experience and that's what makes it 381 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 2: so special. 382 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: And I know for so many people myself included, that 383 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: have wonderful memories as a kid going to the symphony 384 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: during the holidays with their parents, their families. It's a 385 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: tradition for so many people. For me, it was just 386 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: seeing the Nutcracker. And yes, you make a day of it. 387 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: It's a great San Francisco experience. You come see the 388 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: symphony and maybe you go to dinner after you have 389 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: lunch before. And what I love is that here in 390 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: the Bay Area we have this incredible, world renowned symphony 391 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: right here in our backyard. And I want people that 392 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: are listening to this conversation to realize, like, this symphony 393 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: is so accessible and we're so lucky to have it here, 394 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: You've got to go experience it at least once in 395 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: your lifetime. I think it will surprise a lot of 396 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: people about how accessible it really is. 397 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: And I think they'll be surprised by how much they 398 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,959 Speaker 2: enjoy it as well too. You know, it's and this 399 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 2: is not just for the young people's concept, but just 400 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: for all the concerts. You know, it's time in your 401 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: day where you're not being interrupted. It's time in your 402 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: day where you're with people and you're all focused on 403 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: the same thing. It's time in your day where you're 404 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: not constantly checking your phone or your email. It's time 405 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: in your day where you're not being tracked, you know, 406 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 2: and your attention isn't being collected and monetized. It's just 407 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 2: and it's a real experience with like real people doing 408 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 2: real things, taking real risks right in front of you. 409 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 2: It's authentic and in a live performance, you know, there's 410 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: always risk. There's always risk because things are so That's 411 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: what's special is, you know, seeing these people going out 412 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: on a limbit, then seeing that level of excellence in 413 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: front of you. It compares to nothing. It compares to 414 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,239 Speaker 2: nothing else. So I think, especially as are you know, 415 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: as we're moving towards an increasingly digital world, it just 416 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 2: makes the experience of coming to the symphony and seeing. 417 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 3: Google Plex and the Young Women's Choral Projects and the 418 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 3: San Francisco Boys Chorus and Mariocci Bonitas and all the 419 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 3: characters that we're going to have and the dancers from 420 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 3: the San Francisco Ballet School, it just. 421 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: Makes it even more special. Yeah, to see all of 422 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 2: that in one concentrated, forty eight minute period, isn't it incredible? 423 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: It's so action packed for forty eight minutes. And by 424 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: the way, I love what you said about this time 425 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: will be uninterrupted for you. We are so just on 426 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: our phones and our tablets all the time. The holidays 427 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: to me are all about tradition. You always start thinking, 428 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: you always think about your life growing up when you 429 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: were a kid and we didn't have phones in top 430 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: and you really did spend the holidays with your families, 431 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: baking cookies, looking at Christmas lights on houses, like celebrating 432 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: the holidays, and this is a chance to kind of 433 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: have that back for forty eight minutes, to sit in 434 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: one Davy's Symphony Hall and watch this incredible performance and 435 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: just lose yourself a little bit in it. Where else 436 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: can you do that? It's so hard to do these days, 437 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: and so what a beautiful place to be able to 438 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: do that. 439 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 2: It's the we work really hard to make sure that 440 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 2: every minute is minute by minute, that everybody is engaged 441 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 2: and enjoying. And I just I just can't. I can't 442 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 2: agree with you more. You know, this is why deck 443 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 2: has become a tradition for so many San Francisco families 444 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 2: and for the schools that come as well too. 445 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: So how lucky are we to be a part of 446 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: this this year?
