"They are confronting, provoking at times, deeply emotional - I still get goosebumps when I read them and I've read them half a dozen times already," "They highlight key points of the subject material of Beethoven's opera, which is really about humanitarian principles, and I think that's not a bad way to close out your first season"

about Gustav Mahler

“I don’t think it’s terribly original to re-open with Mahler 2 but for me it’s more than just the serendipity of the title. It’s also that The Resurrection symphony explores musically and emotionally every corner of the space,” “It’s one of the biggest gatherings of musical forces that you can imagine and it’s a wonderful opportunity for Sydney audiences - and the orchestra - to explore everything the space has to offer”

“Despite the fact it was written more than 200 years ago it is one of the most contemporary operas that exist,” “It proclaims humanitarian values and is about triumph over tyranny and corruption - triumph through love and sacrifice”

"The agreement we've come to is that I will come for three blocks of time each year, and like most chief conductors it will be an average of eight or nine weeks a year," "When you think the orchestra does 35 weeks of mainstream symphonic repertoire, that's just over a quarter of their subscription weeks. That's quite substantial"
