    Please excuse my brain malfunctioning and saying "scheme" when I meant to say "pattern" ( *sighs in Spanish*). I assure you conductors are not behind any scheme, pyramid or of any kind

    Welcome back! Loved this video. Now I have a challenge for you: expand on every indication ou mentioned at 05:18 (Tempo, Dynamics...) in as many videos as needed ☺I know it's a lot to ask and I'm sure you'll be more than up to it!

      Thanks! Will definitely try to get more specific in some other video, I do speak with more detail about what conductors show in another video( “can an orchestra play without a conductor) if you are interested ;)

    Excellent overview of the job. Keep making them! And please make on on how to keep the music moving along and not get slower and slower that can be passed on to one conductor I play with.

      Thanks! I might just make a video on typical conducting “mistakes”, we’ve all been guilty of some at some point 🙃

    Excellent as always. Did you learn how to conduct well from a teacher or through experience with orchestras? For my part I learned most of what I know from orchestras; you definitely learn what NOT to do!
    I find Dover editions very good and inexpensive for standard repertoire. You can always compare them to Urtext editions in libraries if changes are needed.

    for sforzando (sfz) you have to go soft after the accent? I thought that's for fortepiano

    I believe the wand chooses you, not the other way around. That may be why you haven't found one you like yet.

    Hablando de batutas, algunos directores (Valery Gergiev) usan mondadientes, directamente :D

    Is Anni actually a wizard and not an orchestra conductor? We'll find out in the next video!

      I think all conductors will find your comment extremely relatable XD

    “ The Baton chooses the conductor, Harry”:). You know what I mean if you watch Harry Potter.
