Conducting Legend Neeme Järvi On Detroit, Playing, and Estonia

Описание: "We're a family of fanatics" -Neeme Järvi


This compelling conversation with legendary conductor Neeme Järvi is a no-nonsense assessment of what it takes to build an orchestra and a community and why being an Estonian musician is a patriotic endeavour. His recollections include studies with Mravinsky and Rabinovich, glimpses of old Detroit, and a look at his extensive, multi-generational family of musicians. For 85-year-old Neeme Järvi it is all part of the "job of having fun".
