Absolutely on Music
An intimate conversation about music and creativity, between the internationally bestselling writer Haruki Murakami and world-class conductor, Seiji Ozawa. Haruki Murakami's passion for music runs deep. Before turning his hand to writing, he ran a jazz club in Tokyo, and the aesthetic and emotional power of music permeates every one of his much-loved books. Now, in Absolutely on Music, Murakami fulfills a personal dream, sitting down with his friend, acclaimed conductor Seiji Ozawa, to talk about their shared interest. They discuss everything from Brahms to Beethoven, from Leonard Bernstein to Glenn Gould, from record collecting to pop-up orchestras, and much more. 'Absolutely on Music is an unprecedented treasure... Talking about music is like dancing about architecture, it's often said, but what joy to watch these two friends dance.' Guardian

Summary of Haruki Murakami & Seiji Ozawa's Absolutely on Music
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had a conversation with Ozawa about the Beethoven Third Piano Concerto in C minor on November 16, 2010. We spent three hours discussing the concerto, and took occasional breaks to prevent Ozawa from tiring. #2 The speech by Bernstein is included in this live recording that I have here. He said that he was conducting the Brahms Piano Concerto according to the interpretation of Glenn Gould, with which he did not agree. He said that he was conducting it because Gould was so valid and serious an artist that he had to take his conception seriously. #3 The piano part is slow, and it sounds fine, especially if you've never heard anyone else play it. It's like a relaxed tune from the countryside. But it must be difficult for the performer to stretch it out like this. #4 In a concert, who is the boss – the soloist or the conductor. The conductor begins working on the music two weeks before the performance, but the soloist can be wrestling with it for six months or more.
