James answered questions for Limelight Magazine (Australia) while in Melbourne conducting the Symphony there. Here’s a snippet:
“I think communicating music is, of course, important but bringing people together and getting people to move together and breathe together is a beautiful job. I love my job, but it’s hard to put into words what it is we do up there but at the end of the day it’s bringing people together and whatever language they speak or whatever place they’re from somehow we’re all coming together and doing the same piece of music in a very united fashion.”
