The conductors have their day on 'Choralation'

I've tinkered a bit with my recent post about the role of a conductor in an ensemble. I decided I was being overly harsh towards conductors when what I was really going for was a comparison of small and large group situations and how we can apply chamber music philosophy to symphonic-size music. As I have said, it is a complex issue and I think my philosophy will continue to evolve over time.

For a stimulating and insightful view on conducting from the conductor's perspective listen to this or read this.
