Conducting Videos

DateWednesday, October 6, 2010 at 10:31PM

I just found the only video I have of me conducting, from my final semester of undergrad, Spring 2005. I worked with the University Band at UW-Eau Claire the entire semester, and thought I'd post the piece that we performed. Robert Jager's Third Suite is a jovial little piece, with the first movement alternating between 7/4 & 5/4, the limpy Waltz in 5 (ala Tchaikovsky) and an exciting Rondo to end the piece.

I'm not sure why I don't have any other videos of me. I'm not just complaining that I don't have DVDs, but I don't have any videos. At all. It would be nice to find some other ones, but I have the feeling they're lost to the ages.

I'll post the videos here for now, and there will be a "Conducting" section on my Videos page in the near future.

As always, thanks for watching!
