MUSC 315 Instrumental Conducting

This course addresses techniques and conventions specific to instrumental conducting beyond the introductory course - MUSC 215. Score study and preparations, rehearsal methods, left-hand/right-hand independence, such as nuance items as phrase shaping and timbre blending are examined and implemented into the student conductor's podium technique. Some conducting of DSU and/or ensembles is expected during the semester. Prerequisites: MUSC 124 - Music Theory II and Analysis and MUSC 215 - Basic Conducting. Fall, odd years.
