The Cambridge Companion to Conducting
Author: José Antonio Bowen
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107494788
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 585
Book Description
In this wide-ranging inside view of the history and practice of conducting, analysis and advice comes directly from working conductors, including Sir Charles Mackerras on opera, Bramwell Tovey on being an Artistic Director, Martyn Brabbins on modern music, Leon Botstein on programming and Vance George on choral conducting, and from those who work closely with conductors: a leading violinist describes working as a soloist with Stokowski, Ormandy and Barbirolli, while Solti and Abbado's studio producer explains orchestral recording, and one of the world's most powerful managers tells all. The book includes advice on how to conduct different types of groups (choral, opera, symphony, early music) and provides a substantial history of conducting as a study of national traditions. It is an unusually honest book about a secretive industry and managers, artistic directors, soloists, players and conductors openly discuss their different perspectives for the first time.

Conducting Choirs, Volume 1: The Promising Conductor: A Practical Guide for Beginning Choral Conductors
Author: David P. DeVenney
Publisher: Roger Dean Publishing Company
ISBN: 9781429117531
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Intended for beginning conductors, this volume offers a conceptual approach to conducting rather than an imitative one.

Approaches to repertory and programming are also introduced, as are score marking, rehearsal strategies and preparation, and singing technique. In total, it is a concise guide that offers a wealth of practical information and stands alone as a resource for even part-time choir directors.
