About this Quote

This quote by Anton Seidl recommends that being a knowledgeable conductor does not always suggest that one is also a knowledgeable author. In reality, the two talents are seldom found together as typically thought. While a conductor may have the ability to lead and assist a musical efficiency, it does not guarantee that they possess the creativity and ability to make up initial pieces. This quote highlights the mistaken belief that being a conductor instantly makes one an author, and emphasizes the rarity of discovering people who excel in both areas. It likewise functions as a suggestion that each musical skill is special and must be appreciated separately.
