LSO Principal Guest Conductor Michael Tilson Thomas is back with the LSO at the Barbican in May 2012. In these videos he talks about his life as a conductor and about the music he will conduct during his visit.
We asked members of the LSO's audience and players to describe why they think the LSO is special. We had no idea just how much the Orchestra meant to them!
