Toshio Hosokawa

When Kent Nagano conducts the Intermezzo from Toshio Hosokawa's opera "Still Sea", he should be in his element. For Nagano loves the sea, he is a passionate surfer who recognises some similarities between his hobby and his profession: "Surfing, like conducting, is about movements that don't disturb", he once said; "if a conductor makes unnatural gestures, communication doesn't work". He then topples off the musical board, so to speak - which, however, does not happen to Nagano. His sense of balance is too great, his musical understanding too deep. He will also show this in Bruckner's Symphony No. 9, where the musical waves keep rising.
