An American orchestra doesn’t want to play more than it has to. I respectfully disagree with that attitude. Zubin Mehta
My father was a trained accountant, a BCom from Sydenham College and a self-taught violinist. In the 1920s, when he was in his teens, he heard a great violinist, Jascha Heifetz, and he was so inspired listening to him that he bought himself a violin, and with a little help from an Italian teacher, he learned to play it. Zubin Mehta
American musicians are very giving – they have the highest standard in the world – but they are also very demanding in their conditions. Zubin Mehta
