The sistema's most spectacular product, however, is Dudamel himself. His dad was a salsa trombonist, but the toddling Gustavo's arms weren't long enough for that instrument, so he started on the violin. His debut as a conductor came when the teacher of his youth orchestra was late for a rehearsal, and the eager 12-year-old was told to stand in. "I still remember the concert: Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, and the Capriol Suite by Peter Warlock."
From that moment, barely a day passed without him conducting one ensemble or another. No wonder that when he took his orchestra on a European tour a dazzled Simon Rattle invited Dudamel to be his assistant in Berlin. That was in 2003. The next year Dudamel won the Mahler Conducting Competition, and the rest is history.
He says emphatically that he will never desert his beloved Simon Bolivar Orchestra. "We improve together, step by step," he says. "I want to be with them all my life." But he's realistic enough to know that big offers will flood his way (the New York Philharmonic already has him lined up, it's said, to replace the unloved Lorin Maazel in 2009) and he would be mad not to go with the flow. "Of course! It's like having a wife but needing to dance with other girls."
Last year he acquired a real wife, Eloisa. "A beautiful, beautiful girl!" he declares. "A ballet dancer anda journalist. I adore her. I want to have a big, big family with her."
He grins wildly – a young man with boundless talent, deeply in love, and the world at his feet. And despite all that, I find myself liking him enormously.
