I have watched many orchestras, some on line, some on the tv and some live. I watch the conductor and I listen to the music but sometimes I find it difficult to equate the conductors movements with the way the orchestra plays.
Am I missing something or can I just not recognise a beat when it jumps up and hits me in the face?
I'm sure everyone at some time or other has conducted a CD orchestra (while no one was looking) and I'm sure if I watched them (or a video of me even) I would see a correlation between the music and the the conductors movements but in real life it just doesn't seem to work that way.
Anyone got experience of conducting and could free up some of the mysteries therein?
Cheers
Mart
