What is conducting?
Quite simply, it is the art of communication by
gesture.
The conductor’s art is seemingly shrouded in mystery, but
Denise Ham removes the mystique and demonstrates a technique that
anyone can acquire, regardless of gender or physical build.

"I
cannot stress enough that this technique is applicable to all
orchestras – amateur, professional, youth and school ensembles" |
