Knowing the Score - a documentary on conductor Simone Young.  As she says in the film, “What does being a women have to do with conducting? My tits don’t get in the way.”

I’m a big fan of hers and have her complete Bruckner SACD series w/the Hamburg Philharmonic.       She pinch hit for an ailing Christoph Eschenbach a few months ago here in DC and knocked it (Brahms No. 2) out of the park.
