Some conductors, not wanting to carry a tin cup as they wave their batons, have rejected important posts in the US for this reason, feeling that it would interfere with their art. Daniel Barenboim is rumored to have left the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in part because he objected to the fundraising demands that were being made of him.
有些指挥家由于不想一手拿指挥棒，一手拿讨饭碗，所以就拒绝了美国乐团的重要职位。他们害怕这些活动会影响艺术追求。据传言，Daniel Barenboim离开芝加哥交响乐团在一定程度上就是因为不满该团对他的筹款要求。
