The talent equation and MAHLER

Livre numérique


This book tackles the importance of challenges in our lives and how to accomplish whatever you put forth, no matter how difficult it may be. Luis Conde, founder of Amrop Seeliger y Conde, recounts some of the challenges that he has taken on in his life and the lessons he has learned from them, all while revealing the secret to his success: the talent equation.

The latest challenge was nothing less than conducting a symphonic orchestra without knowing basic musical theory. He chose to conduct Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2, "The Resurrection," with the Vallès Symphony Orchestra in the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona. With a lot of dedication and passion, it's possible to successfully complete a challenge as complicated as this one. The author, in his role as conductor of the orchestra, created the necessary harmony between the orchestra and the audience until the point at which they ultimately became one. Just as Mahler was a martyr consumed in the flames of hard work, Luis Conde gave his all to make this challenge a reality. This determination encourages us to pursue our own dreams.
