«Tram for Two» with Paavo Järvi and Margarita Balanas

Why does a successful cellist want to become a conductor? Paavo Järvi asks the question, Margarita Balanas provides the answer. Apart from that, they soon get to family topics: Both have brothers who are also musicians, but who have very different artistic tastes. And music plays a central role in both families – and not only classical music. Margarita Balanas then asks another basic question: What criteria does Paavo Järvi use to select his assistant conductors? And why are they mostly women?
