Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.
During the interview, Ehnes professed his joy and surprise at having won the coveted prize for the first recording executed with Maestro Tovey. He spoke candidly about many aspects of his life and career in music, recounting his childhood interest in the violin and the incident the night before his first professional appearance, at sixteen, with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra . He talked about his relationship with his current manager, whose former client was the legendary pianist Glenn Gould, and elaborated on the Walton violin concerto. The first movement of the Walton concerto and the Barber concerto were featured on the show as well. The entire interview can be accessed online on the host’s page of archived programs.
