MUS 709 - Graduate Instrumental Conducting I

Credit(s): 3
When Offered: Summer

Students enrolled in this course will focus on the development of clear and expressive conducting gestures towards the goals or artistic performance, rehearsal efficiency, and advanced musical understanding. In depth score study of multiple musical works, selected by the instructor and student together, from the core repertoire of the student’s major ensemble will be the basis of the musical content. Individual lessons will serve as the major mode of instructional delivery in this course, though if multiple students enroll concurrently, a conducting seminar may be added to discuss relevant topics.
