Conductor Extraordinaire

By John Walters on Thursday, April 29, 2004.

As a kid, Anthony Princiotti used to conduct recordings of classical music while standing on a stack of Golden Books. He went to Julliard to study violin, but eventually found his way back to conducting. Today, he is the conductor and music director of the New Hampshire Philharmonic Orchestra and the Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra. He?s also Associate Conductor of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra. He talks about his approach to conducting, what he?s really doing up there, and why you should never, ever look a French Horn player in the eyes.

Anthony Princiotti will conduct the New Hampshire Philharmonic Saturday, May 1 at 8 p.m. The concert will take place at the Palace Theatre in Manchester. For tickets- 603-668-5588
