“Perhaps the greatest venture I ever undertook,” says Lahav Shani of the first time he conducted Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3 from behind the keyboard. In an empty room, alone in front of the cameras, it was already a challenge. Now, with an audience present, making music is on the cutting edge. Reckless? Strauss' Don Quixote gives the answer: defying the doubters is true heroism.
