Background: Willem van Otterloo was by no means a dictatorial conductor, nor was he a glamour-seeker or showman. The music itself had the highest priority. His thorough knowledge of each and every score was legendary, and he conducted nearly all the larger works from memory.

But above all he was a true orchestral trainer. From this legendary conductor we now have a unique document in our hands.
