New conductor's first day.

It's Kiril Karabits' first day as our principal conductor and he seemed a bit shy and nervous until he started conducting, and then he was just great.
Unlike Marin, he can describe how he wants something to sound, and then conduct it too. We're doing Shostakovich's 11th symphony and I can imagine how it could really be a very boring first movement if it wasn't done right, but this is going to sound really good.
