This text is a unique find for the aspiring conductor - a sequenced approach to the many musical and extra-musical conducting shills that doesn't find itself complicated by a complex presentation. Revised to include additional step-by-step exercises and examples, it remains rooted in its "Seven Disciplines for Excellence in Conducting." Promoting the kind of focused, dedicated study that conducting requires, these disciplines - analyzing the score, internalizing the score, marking the score, planning the rehearsal, rehearsing the rehearsal, conducting the score, and researching the score - build on each other to continually reinforce earlier disciplines. Well-suited for both self-study and use in a conducting course or seminar, Precision Conducting is also an excellent resource for those looking to refresh an existing skill set.
