Ozawa a great conductor and it shows He is a fantastic person.

Seiji's earnestness, intellect and candid lack of pretense are plain in this video....what a shame his relationship with Boston deteriorated to the point at which he was derided so stridently by musicians and critics alike. Ozawa is truly an amazing musician....I hope more Americans (like myself) will begin to appreciate him for the big heart and formidable intellect he possesses.

hes such a humble person.

Lovely conversation. I am an admirer of Mr.Ozawa from Tanglewood festival.1973 where I was a fellowship piano student. Great musician and wonderfully expressive body language..Also what in yiddish is called a"mensh" Thanks for posting

Thank you so much for making this interview available in your DCH!

I am glad I came across with this video. Thank you so much for uploading. Fascinating to hear Mr. Ozawa talk about Saito. The amazing Saito Kinen orchestra plays in annual music festivals in Matsumoto, Nagano.

Ah Seiji...Toronto and Ontario Place, 1972...a girl with a copper chain. After 40 years I think am still in love with you!!!

Fergus for the win! Just also watched his interview with Betsy Jolas on the DCH. What a gifted, genuine fella. Fergus for the win!

Just saw him on WML early 1960s Great

Rugby and piano playing can't go together, so he considered conducting...when God leads you to your path! Btw I am in love with this man : so humble and classy and elegant despite of being a music genius

BPOの公式動画で、小澤征爾へのインタビューとはいえ、サイトウの名前が出るとは！　素晴らしい！

Brilliant conductor. I think his best performance is The Nutcracker (Tchaikovsky).

愛されるのが実によく分かる。

Danke Fergus. sehr entspannt..mach weiter so.v.G.Kurt(+Beny/Luzern)

Jetzt weiß ich nicht, was ich singen soll...ach ja was du singst, ist immer toll ;) Großartig!

Great

:) Wie herrlich! Beide kommen einfach unglaublich sympatisch rüber... Hörner halt ;) Aber Seiji Ozawa auch. Aber die berliner Hörner sind schon klasse! "Singen ist was für Choleriker" =D

興味深いインタビュー。すべて英語。

It is hard to say that this person has the key to open the door to the spiritual abyss while being close to the composer that Dr.Böhm, his ally Karajan, Szell, Keilberth, Matačić, Марке́вич, etc. have. This is because the composer's existence as a result of sneaking through the rough waves of the times as the ground cannot be perceived as being dug up from the background ground. Unfortunately, shallow. It is beautifully organized in a momentary manner. But it's not organic. Incomplete. You can tell by listening. But, Mozart's Linz with Staatskapelle Dresden, Brahms's No. 1 symphony, handed down by Karajan in Salzburg in the summer, has a unique inspirational Elan and Great chemistry! ~ August 8, 1976 Salzburg.

Ozawa+Prokofiev=FTW

I think Seiji Ozawa was one from a million Japanese who can speak english...

I have to say this is kind of boring. But this guy in the white shirt is my uncle. So i was bored and searched his name!
