“When
I wrote my Memoirs which were published in Russia, I viewed myself
first and foremost as a composer. This was probably an extremely subjective
impression, merely reflecting my own personal opinion. I may be completely
wrong, as I was known almost exclusively as a conductor! I probably
devoted less time to composition than I would have wished…However
I have remained master of my own destiny.” |
