In the Thread: A great conductor - but almost unknown - Anton Nanut
Post Subject: No, I don't believe in 'accidents'Posted by JANDL100 on: 2/21/2008

Perhaps we mean different things by the word 'accident'.  For me, an accidently great piece of art would be if I painted things at random on a canvas and it 'accidentally' turned out to be identical to a masterpiece by Rembrandt.  Pure chance.   I could try again a billion times, and it would not happen again.

For me, Nanut has shown that he is a World Class conductor because he has repeated this 'accident' quite a few times - Bruckner 8, Mahler 6, Beethoven 7, Beethoven 3 and several more of the Beethoven symphonies.

That is not an 'accident' by my way of thinking.
