Sir Simon in Berlin: Not a Bed of Roses

The Guardian today has an interview with Sir Simon Rattle in which he reveals that his relationship with the players of the Berlin Philharmonic is rather tempestuous.
"It can be turbulent," he said. "But never destructively so. Even when it's turbulent it's moving in a direction.

"The musicians are very articulate, they are very open, they are very curious. They always want to know why we are doing something. They don't just do it - they are not an obedient orchestra in that way, but they are a very creative orchestra.

"They are not that easy to deal with but it's a lot of fun. Big temperaments, big personalities. It's difficult."
In the spirit of full disclosure, we should note that Simon is married to our publisher Duane Grant's cousin and we like him a lot around here.
