Welcome to Issue 3: The Symphonies of Haydn and Beethoven. This issue offers something completely different to the last two on opera \u2013 discussion of the early symphonic repertoire. Beethoven\u2019s Symphonies are the bread and butter of most orchestral conductors\u2019 work, and here you have the Professor of Conducting at the Royal College of Music, Peter Stark, and the former Music Director of the English National Opera (and Olivier Award winning) Mark Wigglesworth sharing their experience and unique insights into their chosen Beethoven symphony. In contrast, Ben Palmer, Artistic Director of Covent Garden\u00a0Sinfonia\u00a0and Chief Conductor of the\u00a0Deutsche Philharmonie Merck, gives us an enlightening overview of conducting Haydn\u2019s symphonies, including wisdom gleaned from his time working with Sir Roger Norrington. I would like to thank all three conductors for being so generous with their time and knowledge, and hope that the readers find the interviews informative, entertaining and beneficial to their own conducting practice.<\/p>\n
