Shelly from St Louis has taken the initiative to organize Leonard Slatkin\u2019s repertoire for 2009 based on the listing of programs on his website<\/a>. Shelly writes that Leonard has been her favorite conductor ever since he did a memorable clinic with her youth orchestra about 15 years ago.<\/p>\n

As with last year, it is an awe-inspiring list- diverse, unpretentious, not afraid to be fun, and seems to me to be a list of a conductor who is happy to take chances. How refreshing to see a conductor of international stature who lists Leroy Anderson alongside Mahler. Amazingly, it is 121 pieces compared to, um, 121 pieces last year<\/a>. (Correction- see Keith Fitch’s comment below. 3 of the Erb pieces were not done by Leonard, after all. Now go check out Keith’s music!)<\/p>\n

Of course, Leonard\u2019s list would be even longer if he\u2019d been well these last several weeks. We\u2019ve all been sending good wishes and karma since his heart attack. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Leonard reads this (he\u2019s a self- confessed internet junkie), so let me just wish my old teacher and mentor a very Merry Christmas and Happy New year- may 2010 be a time of good health, happiness and many more successes. Thanks for all your wisdom and support, Leonard.<\/p>\n
