The Muse in Music - Tito Muñoz on What Compels a Conductor to Believe in a Composition

By, Dan Perttu

Please join me as I talk with Tito Muñoz, former music director of the Phoenix Symphony and interim principal conductor of the Cleveland Institute of Music orchestra, as he discusses his journey from violinist to conductor, driven by his interest in leadership and fascination with the conductor's role. He emphasizes the importance of genuine, authentic expression in compositions, whether historical or contemporary.   He also highlights the significance of personal relationships and recommendations in programming living composers.
