… One of the musicians who is acting as a union spokesman is Doug Wright. Guess who has moved my stoic Nordic self to leap to her feet in spontaneous applause? Doug Wright. Guess what you’ve done in that direction? NOTHING. I don’t even particularly like the trombone. It’s not in my top five favorite instruments. And that man can play the trombone to make me jump up and shout, “Bravo!” I am not a shouter of “Bravo.” But I shouted it anyway. Do you understand that at all? Have you had that experience of the orchestra you run? Do you remember that that’s what you’re supposed to be facilitating, at all? What do you think your letters are going to do to override that?

I love this! RTWT
