British conductor and organist Sir Malcolm Sargent was chief conductor at the London Promenade Concerts during the last century, and did much to bring classical music alive for younger audiences.
As he was preparing to leave the Albert Hall in London after a concert one evening, Sir Malcolm overheard the following brief exchange between two young girls:
“How I envy Sir Malcolm.”
“You mean his conducting?”
“Oh, no, not that. I mean his neat little flat behind.”
