Laderman discusses how his relationship with Martin Ormandy in New York City (1936-1940) led to an acquaintance with the reputation and work of Martin's brother, Eugene Ormandy. Laderman also relates the experience of having his Concerto for violin and orchestra performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra, with Elmar Olveira as soloist, and himself replacing Eugene Ormandy as conductor, a substitution suggested by Riccardo Muti. Laderman offers comments on the nature of the "Philadelphia Sound", especially in terms of string technique, and offers his opinion of Eugene Ormandy as conductor, with comparisons to George Szell, Leonard Bernstein and Fritz Reiner.
