SUGGESTED HOST INTRO
 
JoAnn Falletta is the conductor of the Virginia Symphony and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.  Although she is a frequent guest conductor around the world, she purposely avoids the jet setting life of other conductors who spend more time conducting abroad than conducting at home.


CLIP TRANSCRIPT 
"It's not a question of just being on the podium, and conducting rehearsals and concerts.  It's a question of being part of the fabric of the community, of being involved in everything that happens in the community, in everything that happens in the orchestra.  You are responsible for the overall artistic health; you can't ignore the youth concerts, or the Pops concerts.  You can't ignore what else is going on culturally in your city, in your region."
