SUMMARY:Conduct Yourself with Maestro Leonard Slatkin
DESCRIPTION:Get insights about conducting from Maestro Leonard Slatkin in a hands-on workshop onstage at Chautauqua Auditorium. \nMost of us have watched a conductor walk onto the stage\, raise a baton\, and lead an orchestra through a performance. But what is actually happening on the podium? How does a conductor communicate with dozens of musicians at once\, shape the sound of an orchestra\, and bring a musical score to life? \nIn this interactive workshop\, the legendary maestro will pull back the curtain on the art of conducting\, beginning with the conductor’s most recognizable tool: the baton. Participants will learn the fundamentals of conducting\, discover how conductors communicate with musicians\, and gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to lead an orchestra. Part masterclass and part behind-the-scenes experience\, this unique event offers a rare chance to learn directly from one of the world’s leading conductors and experience orchestral music from an entirely new perspective. \nMaestro Slatkin created Conducting School 1.0\, a video series designed to teach music lovers basic conducting techniques. To prepare\, view the conducting series on his website or Youtube channel – then experience it live on July 24. \nThis is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn more about the craft of conducting from a six-time GRAMMY-winning conductor!
