Internationally acclaimed American conductor, composer, and author, Leonard Slatkin, Conductor Laureate of the SLSO, celebrates his 80th birthday by reflecting on a nearly 60-year career that has seen him conduct the world’s leading orchestras. This special event offers a rare and intimate glimpse into Leonard’s extraordinary journey. From his early inspirations and challenges as an emerging conductor to his numerous accolades, including the prestigious National Medal of Arts and the rank of Chevalier in the French Legion of Honor, Leonard’s story is one of passion, dedication, and profound influence on the world of classical music. This conversation promises to be an inspiring tribute to a life devoted to the arts.


Left Bank Books will provide copies of Leonard Slatkin's memoir "Classical Crossroads" and other Slatkin titles for purchase at the event. A book purchase will include a line number for a post-event meet and greet and book signing.
