Snap your fingers and get him, then.

Salonen, (by no means an opera specialist, meaning that he will only conduct a limited number of masterpieces--a la Kleiber--and not many iterations of the same piece) has repeatedly indicated (more recently during the NY Philharmonic search for music director) that he wants to reduce his conducting engagements in order to focus mainly on composition.

Which other opera house is getting "Salonen on a regular basis?"
