Or the subset, where's the downbeat. The arms move in tempo but the direction of each movement is at best a random event, multiple measures without a discernable down beat at the start of the measure. This is not a problem, unless you are doing something like "Church Windows" by Respighi.
Which we did a few years ago, the woodwinds raised particular concern and specifically asked to be cued. The conductor agreed and thus marked his score. During the performance at the spot in question, the conductor cued the woodwinds, they looked shocked which through the conductor off and it went downhill from there. Ah, but we did finish together, that does count for a lot. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of pxlin Sent: Saturday, May 28, 2011 1:13 PM To: The Horn List Subject: [Hornlist] Conuctors Don't forget the "Where is the Beat" windmill conductors.
