A star in New York
Did you see the whole-page profile of Xian Zhang in yesterday's New York Times? Vivien Schweitzer writes about Xian: "Ms. Zhang credits the confidence and skill noted by musicians and critics alike to her training at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, where she began studying in 1998 and soon became the college's youngest faculty member ever."
The article also mentions that she cut her teeth conducting CCM's orchestras. Let's hope we see her in our region conducting again soon, maybe the CSO?

I've got a lot of friends in that orchestra and they don't talk about confidence and skill...
I have got a lot of friends who aren't in the orchestra or who attend orchestra concerts because of that type of snobbery.
Same comment. Different (same?) musical whiner.
Enough already.
HUH?
I don't think it's snobbery. Just someone's opinion or experience perhaps.
