Untying Knots and an interview with orchestral conductor Kent Nagano

Shintaido of America Podcast

Episode Two Season Two includes an interview with renowned conductor Kent Nagano, who discusses the leadership skills needed to conduct an orchestra and their application to other aspects of life.
He also describes the time he invited master Shintaido instructor H.F. to lead his orchestra in a Shintaido practice during their rehearsal in the concert hall. We’ll also hear Chapter Two of Untying Knots: a Shintaido Chronicle, master Shintaido instructor Michael Thompson’s autobiographical essay. In this episode, Michael returns to France with the intention of throwing himself into “...a hedonistic bohemian lifestyle, succumbing to decadence if need be.”
His plans are thwarted, however, and he ends up quitting both alcohol and cigarettes – without suffering a religious conversion.
