Is there any particular things you like adding the most? Or does it really just depend on the piece?

Hi, French horn player for ~8 years here, represented Colorado in Europe as part of a band/orchestra.

When you get a piece, do you ever decide to give it your own personal flourishes (say, emphasize the dynamic contrast more, take a non-written tempo)? Do you think that conductors have their own personal styles that end up influencing the way their bands play the music?
