I had the pleasure of meeting with the maestro in the 80s when he was in Columbus, Ohio conducting the local orchestra. I interviewed him for the magazine of the Leopold Stokowski Society of America. While not everything he said ended up in the interview (he asked that certain things not be in it) it is interesting. He was truly a gentleman. He worked with Stokowski when Stokowski was with the NYPO.
