Seattle Symphony conductor and music director Gerard Schwarz broke his left leg and ankle last Thursday in a skiing accident. He faces surgery later this week, the SSO reports, with full recovery expected. In fact, the athletic Schwarz was conducting a recording session this morning, seated. He returned from the slopes Friday, thinking it was just a strain, but discovered the breaks at the doctor. He's now mastering a new art--crutches.
