After taking over the leadership of the Taipei Philharmonic, she has devoted herself to training and planning concerts, and endlessly listens to tapes and records during the course of her studies. Her only recreations are riding occasionally at the Youth Park in Taipei, and swimming at a hotel pool.
一年來，郭美貞已將全部的心力和時間投注在台北愛樂交響樂團的策劃和訓練上。除了偶爾騎騎馬、遊游泳舒活一下筋骨外，她不是在家裡聽唱片、錄音帶、研究樂譜，就是在愛樂基金會的辦公室裡策劃樂團的發展，在練習室裡指揮團員的演奏。
