A question I've heard over and over as a musician is: what do conductors actually do? You may have gone to see a symphony and seen the conductors dancing around the podium while they wave their arms around wildly. But are the musicians really watching? They seem to be looking at the music stands.
Today on the Between Movements Podcast I have a professional in the field of conducting who can help to help shed some light on the topic. Dr. David Galant is the Music Director of the University Symphony Orchestra at Creighton University, Nebraska. He's guest conducted for multiple orchestras around the globe, and he can help us decode what the hand movements are doing for the music.
