Kurt Masur quotes
" An orchestra full of stars can be a disaster. "

Kurt Masur
" And at the same time, I had my very first concert at the age of 16. I hadn't heard a symphony orchestra before, and I was so deeply impressed I said I have to be a conductor. "

Kurt Masur
" And I always tried to be not a star. To be someone who people like to talk to. "

Kurt Masur
" And I discovered very often that the shy young conductors have very often higher talent, more talent than the other ones. "

Kurt Masur
" And I love the organ because I grew up in a small city, the organ was the major instrument in church which impressed me very strongly. "

Kurt Masur
" And if you are strong enough, then you can grow as a conductor more and more. "

Kurt Masur
" And to understand this, I think this is a most important point where I would like always to be understood what we do with the New York Philharmonic. That the meaning of the music is number one. "

Kurt Masur
" As I came to New York, it was for me a new beginning. To discover what people are living here. What do they need, what do they expect, what would they like to be the image and the performance of the New York Philharmonic? "

Kurt Masur
" At the age of 16, something happened with my finger and the doctor told me, you never can be a organist or pianist, so think about what you do with music. "

Kurt Masur
" Because I found that I had a kind of strength in expressing what I feel musically. "

Kurt Masur
" Because I grew. I grew as a human being and I tried always to keep the connection to the people surrounding me. "

Kurt Masur
" Even I had no opportunity to conduct very many concerts after World War II. "

Kurt Masur
" Even my family laughed at me because they thought this young guy who's always stuttering in front of other people should be in front of 100 musicians and talk to them and leading them. "

Kurt Masur
" I always imagined that to bring an orchestra to play together is not enough for a conductor. "

Kurt Masur
" I always was stronger in my musical _expression than in my technical possibilities. "
