MUSI 505 Applied Conducting II

The purpose of this course is to provide additional in-depth study into all aspects of conducting and score study. Each student will be required to prepare materials that address the following areas: 1 advanced conducting technique; 2 advanced score marking and preparation; and 3 advanced rehearsal techniques. These concepts will be addressed using repertoire that will stretch the students understanding of music and its compositional structure. In the second semester of study, all students will be studying repertoire of the most advanced levels. Areas of further study and refinement will include transposition, advanced ear training/error detection and repertoire selection.
