O-10, no one is calling you names and no one here would. I apologize if you found anything I wrote to be offensive. None of it was intended to be a personal attack and I would suggest you go over what you wrote to understand why it gave a certain impression.
re the conductor:
O-10, by your own admission you know very little about Classical music and don’t listen to it. Simple statement of fact and not a criticism at all; we don’t all like all genres of music. So, it follows that a person who doesn’t listen to Classical music would not be able to recognize a good conductor. Right? I would be glad to offer more details as to why that is not a very good conductor if you would like to learn a little more about what conducting an orchestra is all about. Otherwise, good tasting pudding or not, you’ll just have to take my word for it; or not. Regards.
