We’re back with a new episode of The Art of Conducting, and this one is truly special. Ahead of his final concerts with the Luxembourg Philharmonic, we sat down with Music Director Gustavo Gimeno for an in-depth conversation about his remarkable 10-year journey with the orchestra. He shared his thoughts on how the ensemble has evolved, the role of body language in conducting, how he balances the composer’s vision with his own interpretation, the difference between leading a symphony and an opera, and much more.
