Herbert
Blomstedt is conductor laureate of the San Francisco Symphony
(SFS) and music director of the Gewandhaus Orchestra of Leipzig.
In his decade at the helm of the SFS (1983-95), he led the symphony
to worldwide recognition. In 1996, Blomstedt assumed the post
of chief conductor for Hamburg's NDR Symphony Orchestra, and
in 1998 became music director to the Gewandhaus Orchestra, one
of the world's most revered ensembles. On
Sabbath, March 31, 2001, members of the Spectrum Advisory
Council worshiped with Blomstedt in San Francisco. This informal
forty-five minute video is based on a presentation by him
and on an interview, both of which took place during the service.
Among other subjects, Maestro Blomstedt discusses
his upbringing as an Adventist, offers insights into the distinguishing
characteristics of quality music, and talks about his favorite
theologians.
