WOWIE OZOWIE
Popular conductor Seiji Ozawa has passed the baton aged 88. He was notably the only Japanese conductor to become a superstar in the Western world. His flashy outfits and lightning-struck hairdo cut a recognisable figure as he helmed the Boston Sympathy Orchestra for almost thirty years. Some critics debated whether his style came at the expense of substance, though others praised his confident interpretations of complex scores. He had been ill on-and-off for over a decade, and was a pick for three teams.
